Holiday Donations: Kitmas and Can Drive
9 December 2022 @ 11:53 AM by Andrew Park

Hey everyone,

 

It's that time of year again and as we get close to the holiday season we'd like to inform all of our participants about a couple of charitable initiatives we're involved in. 

 

Kitmas - Our friends at Soccer Snobs, Ottawa's Soccer Radio Show/Podcast, are spearheading an initiative called Kitmas to collect soccer jerseys (pro and amateur), balls, training equipment etc. for local children in need. Originating in the UK, it's a program designed to get soccer/sports gear into the hands of underprivileged youth in our community. We're excited to be a part of this cause and will be have a collection bin set up at the both RA Centre Dome and the uOttawa Lees Dome to receive donations. If you'd like to make a contribution you can also drop us an email at admin@ottawafootysevens.com and we can arrange for pickup/dropoff. If you'd like to see more about the fundraiser or contribute financially, please visit this link or drop us an email for more information. The initiative will end on December 17th in order to allow enough time to distribute the equipment.

 

Can/Food Drive - We will be running our annual can drive (back after Covid!) and will be accepting non-perishable food items at the RA Centre Dome and the uOttawa Lees Dome for local food banks. Keep an eye out over the holidays for charity pickup games and some other events we'll be hosting. The food drive will conclude on December 23rd. 

 

If you have a donation that is too large or you don't have the means to drop it off, just send us an email and we can arrange for a pickup. We will be accepting donations starting today and we hope to make this another great success! 

If you have any questions, just send us an email.

Our Li'l Sambas Kids Soccer Programs:

We launched our new Li'l Sambas kids program last year and had an incredible response with over 350 kids joining us each week at Immaculata by the end of the Fall season.

All of our Li'l Sambas programs are a joint venture between Footy Sevens and Futuro Soccer Academy. Those of you who have watched the Futuro Academy kids train before or after your Footy Sevens game will already have been amazed at the level of technique and attention to detail at each session. Those same core principles will be adapted to each age level to give an unrivaled start in the game for both beginners and kids with little experience.

New For 2022 - Sunday Morning House Leagues

We've already got 250 kids registered for our developmental programs on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings at Immaculata. This year we'll also be adding Sunday morning house leagues for ages 6 & 7, 8 & 9 and 10 & 11. No training or drills, it's a weekly league game just like your Footy Sevens adult leagues.

Despite the changes from the provincial government regarding vaccine passports, both uOttawa and Carleton will continue to be require all those who enter the facility to show proof of vaccination. We understand that this policy will continue until the end of the semester for all indoor facilities, at which point it will be reviewed and likely removed.

All other venues (Ben Franklin Dome, Hornet's Nest Dome, Sooner's Megadome, Immaculata) will no longer require proof of vaccination. 

All domes will continue to require players to wear masks when entering and exiting the facility. If and when this changes, we will update everyone.

Please let us know if you have any questions,

3 January 2022 @ 1:03 PM by Andrew Park

Hi everyone,

Following today's provincial announcement, all leagues will be postponed until January 26th at the earliest (see below for venue specific information). The impending lockdown will also cause delays to the start dates of the Winter 2022 league program. Over the next few days, the admin team will be updating league schedules to reflect the new restrictions and plan for the restart. We will operate under the premise that sports will return by the end of the month and will keep you updated if restrictions are changed or extended.

  • The current Fall and Winter leagues that were in progress as of today will be postponed until January 26th. 
  • The Winter 2022 that were scheduled to start in January & February will be delayed anywhere from 1 to 4 weeks from the date of reopening. Start dates will be adjusted on our homepage, but please note that these are tentitive and subject to change.

As it stands, the current reopening dates for venues are as follows. Leagues will resume as soon as it is permitted to do so.

What's coming up at Ottawa Footy Sevens
24 November 2021 @ 3:32 PM by Chris Surgeoner

Hi Footyseveners,

With only a week until the last of our winter leagues kick-off, we wanted to reach out with a quick update on what the next few months have in store. Included below is information on our remaining league spaces for this season, an update on next season (Winter 2022), pickup soccer, kids programs and a holiday offer.

 

Winter Leagues (November/December Starts): - remaining spaces.

 

Winter 2022 (January/February Starts):

Registration for next season will open the week of December 6th. The lineup for next season will look very similar to the current one with leagues located centrally (uOttawa & Carleton), the east end (Gloucester Hornet's Nest) and in the west (Ben Franklin Dome & Sooners Megadome). Full details of all league options will be online in the next week or so.

 

Charity Outdoor Pickup Soccer:

100% of the proceeds of our remaining Outdoor Pickup Games will be donated to local charities. We've had a great 4 or 5 months of pickup soccer, and built up a great community of players. Since we are obviously coming towards the end of the outdoor season, we've decided to make all remaining outdoor 60-minute games only $8 and 90-minute games $10 and give all of the proceeds to local charities, We'll also be starting to phase in some indoor pickup games, but they will be a far more limited supply than the outdoor games have been.

You can find the list of upcoming games on our pickup soccer website

 

Li'l Sambas Kids Programs:

After a successful outdoor season, we continue to build our new youth program alongside Sanjeev Parmar and the Futuro Soccer Academy. Our first winter program kicks off at uOttawa at the beginning of December. We only have a few spaces left until it is sold out and registration for the following season will open in mid-December. You can find full details and registration at the L'il Sambas website.

 

Team Party Promotion at the Laugh Lounge Comedy Club:

Tis the season for Christmas team parties and we've got just the offer for you. All Footy Sevens members are eligible for 50% off admission (12 person maximum, reservation made 5 days in advance).

Pickup Soccer

We will continue to offer our ever-popular outdoor pickup soccer games until the snow falls. No commitment, just sign up and play in a one-off game. Details of our upcoming pickup soccer games can be found on the Footy Seven pickup soccer website.

Volleyball

Registration for all volleyball and leagues can be found on the Ottawa Volley Sixes website. We are almost full for this year, but we can still fit in a handful of individuals to our Wednesday Mixed 6s League at Redeemer Christian School.

Li'l Sambas Soccer

This summer saw us partner with Futuro Soccer to launch our Li'l Sambas Soccer programs for kids age 4-11. It was a huge success with over 350 kids joining us at Immaculata for skills, drills, games and fun. We are hoping to post details of fall and winter programs for kids soon, so register on the Li'l Sambas Soccer website if you want to be kept up to date with upcoming programs for kids.
 
See you all on the field,

Important Information on Vaccine Requirements for League Games
2 September 2021 @ 3:49 PM by Chris Surgeoner

Hello everyone,

Thank you all for joining us again for our late summer/early fall outdoor leagues. It's been great to see both new and returning teams back on the field and even some familiar faces and team names back after an 18-month hiatus.

Fall Leagues and Vaccinations

The Province of Ontario announced yesterday that it would be introducing a vaccine passport. It appears that this applies to indoor sports, but not to outdoor sports 

However, it looks like it will be mandatory to provide proof of vaccination at some of the outdoor venues that we will be using for the current leagues. Venues are introducing and updating vaccine policies as the new school and university term approaches.

In order to participate in a game at any venue, all players must abide by any policy or regulation that is in place at that specific venue. At some venues, this may include providing proof of vaccination. This is not negotiable with Footy Sevens, rules and regulations are set by the venue, and cannot be ignored or superseded by the league.

Here is what we know regarding the fields that we will be using:

Immaculata High School: Procedures will follow Provincial vaccine policy. No current change to procedures or vaccine proof required,

Carleton University: All visitors to the Carleton University campus including the Stadium and Raven Road fields must upload proof of vaccination to the Carleton U website and be able to show this proof of vaccination or they will not be allowed onto the campus.

"all individuals who are coming on to campus must attest to receiving their first dose vaccine by September 8, 2021, and their second dose no later than October 15, 2021. "

University of Ottawa: All visitors to the University of Ottawa campus including Lees Field must upload proof of vaccination to the uOttawa website, be able to show this proof of vaccination and complete a daily COVID symptom check-in list or they will not be allowed onto the campus.

"all visitors (external clients, contractors and spectators) must be vaccinated to access all our athletic facilities on campus as of September 7th (first dose) and October 15th (second dose)"

A few FAQs

What happens if I have a game at Carleton U or uOttawa and have not completed the vaccination requirements and proof? You will not be allowed to take part in the game and asked to leave the campus.

When do these requirements start? See information for individual venues above

What happens if I am exempt or wish to apply to be exempt from these policies? Anyone who wishes to discuss the policies at Carleton University or uOttawa or apply for exemption should do so directly with the University, we do not have any ability to ignore or alter their procedures on behalf of any individual.

Can we make a request for all of our games to be at a venue that does not require vaccination? Unless a league specifically says that it is only played at one venue, we cannot guarantee that any team or player will not have any games at any specific venue.

I'm vaccinated, but I don't know where the proof of vaccination is? If you were vaccinated in Ontario, you should have got an e-mail with a document titled "dose_admin . . ." . Try searching your email for that.

We will provide updates as we have them,

Good luck for the new season,

The Footy Sevens Team
