Hi everyone,
Now that we're outdoors and the weather is getting quite summery, we'll start to see the odd thunderstorm roll in and disrupt games. We provide updates on game day via Twitter and our feed can be viewed on Twitter @OttawaFooty7s or by simply going to our homepage (left hand menu). We'll always do our best to communicate any delays and/or cancellations as early as possible but these situations can be fluid, so we appreciate your understanding.
Drop us an email if you have any questions.
- Your Footy7s Team
Hello Footyseveners,
Many of you already have your teams registered for the spring season of our adult soccer leagues, but you may not know that we'll also be offering spring house leagues for kids as part of our Li'l Sambas 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.
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.
We are proud to continue offering our Register with Confidence Guarantee for the spring seasons. If the upcoming seasons are canceled due to Covid restrictions, registrants will have the option to receive a refund for any unplayed games.
You can find full details of all of the programs and register over on the new Li'l Sambas Soccer Website
If you have any questions, please drop us an email at ottawa@lilsambassoccer.com
- Your Ottawa Footy Sevens Team
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,
Hi Captains,
We generally wait until the current season is underway before opening registration for the next season, but due to the disruptions over the past few months our registration cycle is a bit out of sync. While we realize the winter leagues have either just started or will start over the next few weeks, we can't delay the registration for our spring and summer leagues any longer.
You can find the full list of our upcoming leagues below and as always, your team space can be secured with a 250.00 deposit.
*If any leagues/games are canceled due covid regulations, teams will be refunded for any unplayed games.
Spaces are limited in these leagues and we expect the remaining spaces to sell out quickly.
Not everything we offer is on the Footy Sevens website. Don't forget to check out
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.
As it stands, the current reopening dates for venues are as follows. Leagues will resume as soon as it is permitted to do so.
Stay safe and Happy New Year,
The Footy Sevens Team
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.
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.
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 $10 and give all of the proceeds to local charities, We'll also be starting to phase in some indoor pickup games, but they will be a far more limited supply than the outdoor games have been.
You can find the list of upcoming games on our pickup soccer website.
After a successful outdoor season, we continue to build our new youth program alongside Sanjeev Parmar and the Futuro Soccer Academy. Our first winter program kicks off at uOttawa at the beginning of December. We only have a few spaces left until it is sold out and registration for the following season will open in mid-December. You can find full details and registration at the L'il Sambas website.
Tis the season for Christmas team parties and we've got just the offer for you. All Footy Sevens members are eligible for 50% off admission (12 person maximum, reservation made 5 days in advance). Drop Nick an email at laughlounge613@gmail.com for information or check them out on Instagram @laughloungeottawa
As we start looking forward to the holiday season we have a great offer from the Laugh Lounge, Ottawa's newest comedy club located in the Byward Market. Whether it's a team party, Christmas party or just a night out, all Footy Sevens members are eligible for a great deal.
Team night out for 100$ (50% off admission)

Hello everyone,
Registration for all Footy Sevens fall/winter indoor leagues is now open for both individuals and for full teams! We've been inundated with team registrations so far, and now the individuals get their turn,
Our Wednesday evening coed league is already sold out, and a few others look set to sell out in the next few days, so don't wait too long to secure your spot for fall and winter.
We are at our usual selection of venues and have added some fantastic new options at the Sooners Megadome in Kanata. We'll be there for Coed on Mondays, as well as Tuesday and Thursday evening men's leagues.
And if you can't wait until November, you can always join one of our regular pick-up games or get on the court with volleyball leagues at various venues.
Don't forget, you can always register with confidence at Footy Sevens! If our leagues don't take place due to a change in government Covid Policies regarding indoor sports, we will issue a full refund for any games that haven't been played.
You can find full information on all of our leagues at the Ottawa Footy Sevens Website
For registration and information on all leagues go to the Ottawa Footy Sevens Website or drop us an e-mail.
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.
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.
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. "
https://carleton.ca/covid19/health-and-safety/covid-19-vaccines/
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)"
https://www.uottawa.ca/coronavirus/en/mandatory-covid-19-vaccination
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,
As we enter the final few weeks of our summer leagues and playoffs heat up we just wanted to reach out with a quick update on our Fall Leagues.
Leagues kickoff over the last week of August or first week of September and will be played outdoors at Immaculata High School, Carleton University or the University of Ottawa (see homepage for specific league locations). If you have any scheduling questions, just drop us an email.

We hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the great weather over this long weekend. We all wish we were back on the field playing the game we love and are hopeful that it won't be long until we're back underway. As the situation here in Ottawa (and Ontario) improves, we wanted to reach out and give you a quick update regarding our Spring/Summer leagues.
We were hoping for an immediate return of safe outdoor sports but unfortunately, it looks like we will have to wait until Phase 2 of the reopening in late June or early July. If there are any changes to the provincial timeline for sports, we are ready to get going right away and will update everyone as more information becomes available.
We've put together a short FAQ that covers some of the more general questions we've received.
When will the leagues begin? The provincial announcement allows for league games to resume in Phase 2 of the reopening plan, currently slated for late June or early July. The dates posted are based on the information we have received to date. They are subject to change and if we're able to start earlier, we are ready to get going as soon as we are permitted to do so.
Can I still register? Yes! We still have spaces remaining in all of our Spring/Summer leagues. Team and Individual registration is open. Click here for all league information.
Will my team play the full 8 game season? Yes, all Spring/Summer leagues will be played in their entirety.
Where will leagues be played? All Spring/Summer leagues will be played outdoors and games will be scheduled at Immaculata High School or Carleton University, as advertised.
We launched our new L'l Sambas kids program a couple of months ago and had an incredible response with alrmost 300 kids already signed up to play in the spring program at Immaculata.

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 a little experience.
We are waiting to hear when we are allowed to reopen and what is or isn't allowed when we do: as soon as we are allowed to open for field rentals and for our popular pickup games, they will be available! Keep watching this space for updates.
THANK YOU! Needless to say, but we'd also just like to say a big thank you to all our members for your continued support throughout the pandemic. We couldn't do this without you and we're looking forward to getting back on the field.
If you have any questions about any of this or a specific league, drop us an email and we'll answer your questions to the best of our ability.
Andrew, Chris, Matt & Joel - Your Ottawa Footy Sevens Team
We hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. As we all know by now, Ontario is under a stay-at-home order until at least May 6th. Under this order we are unable to offer league games, pickup games or training session. We've had a few questions from people about the status of the leagues and while the situation is very fluid, we wanted to provide a brief update.
Thanks for your patience (again!) as we navigate this challenging situation.
We hope everyone had a good holiday and we wish you all a happy new year.
As you know by now, Ottawa is under a full lockdown and indoor sports are prohibited until February 11th. With these restrictions in mind, we wanted to reach out to update everyone on how they will impact our current schedules and the next season of leagues.
Winter Season:
Providing restrictions are lifted and indoor team sports are permitted, the winter season will resume on February 11th. We have started updating schedules and will confirm the adjustments once we know that government restrictions will be lifted. The final weeks of the winter season will be condensed and likely involve doubleheaders.
Winter/Early Spring Season:
These restrictions have had a knock-on effect on our next set of winter/early spring leagues and some start dates have been delayed. Please double-check the homepage of the website for specific league information.
Our Register with Confidence Guarantee:
Registration is open for our Winter/Early Spring leagues and your team space can be secured with a 250.00 deposit. If the Winter/Early Spring season is cancelled due to Covid restrictions, registrants will have the option to receive a refund for any unplayed games.
In order to keep things manageable on our end, we'll not be accepting full team payments until we have confirmation that provincial restrictions will be lifted. For a full list of our leagues click here.
We are currently operating under the assumption that measures will be lifted in February but recognize there is a level of uncertainty. We'll continue to update you as to the status of our restart as information becomes available.
Until then, stay safe and we'll hopefully see you back on the field soon!
Andrew, Chris & Matt - Your Ottawa Footy Sevens Team
As some of you already know, the government has announced that the province will be entering a 28 day lockdown on Boxing Day. As a result team sports and athletic facilities will be temporarily shut down.
As it stands, this should have minimal impact on our leagues, with the majority of the lockdown period coinciding with our Christmas break. The league schedules that are impacted have been updated. There is also a chance the lockdown will be reduced to 14 days. If that's the case there should be very minor disruption to the league schedules.
We just wanted to give everyone a quick update on what this means for the current and upcoming leagues.
There will be no games in the current leagues until at least January 23rd and our winter leagues with advertised start dates prior to January 23rd will be delayed.
Team and individual registration for the winter 2021 season will remain open. Footy Sevens would like you to know that you can register for our winter leagues with confidence. If we are required to make drastic changes or forced to cancel any leagues we will issue a full refund.
We will send a full update on the leagues once we have more clarity on the situation. Please do not ask us for specific updates just now, as we don't have any further information at the moment.
Hopefully, this gives you the information that you need just now, and we will be able to answer more of your questions soon.
Have a great Christmas,
Andrew, Chris, Joel and Matt and Ryan
The final games of the much postponed and interrupted outdoor league season are now in the books and the first indoor leagues kicked off over the past couple of weeks. We truly appreciate all of the teams and players that continued to support the league and adapt to whatever this year threw at you, whether it was delays and doubleheaders or masks, checklists and subzero temperatures. On behalf of all of us at Footy Sevens, we'd like to say thank you for your patience and adaptability.
Coed and Men's Leagues Now Available at uOttawa Lees Dome
We have some great news. Ottawa U have given us our rental times for the Lees Dome starting in mid-January and we will be able to offer the Coed and Men's Leagues that we have traditionally offered each winter at the dome. We know that there were many of you who were waiting to see if we would be offering leagues at Ottawa U. or who we were not able to accommodate in our sold-out leagues at Carleton, Gloucester and Ben Franklin.
We have the following leagues available at the Lees Dome, starting on the week of January 18th.
Our capacity for these leagues are significantly lower than usual, as only two of the three fields at the dome will be used each hour due to the COVID-19 regulations. As you would expect, both Footy Sevens and Ottawa University will have COVID-19 protocols in place to make sure that everyone can play safely and responsibly.
We still need to get final confirmation from the uOttawa administration that their risk management team has signed off on the dome opening, but we expect to have that very soon. If for any reason, the dome cannot reopen all deposits will be refunded immediately. You can reserve your place in any of our uOttawa leagues with a $100 deposit.
We have opened team and individual registration for the leagues and you can find full details and registration on the Footy Sevens Website. Click on the team price to place your deposit and confirm your team's space in the league.
New Indoor League - Sundays at the Bell's Sensplex
We have one other new coed league, at a new venue for us. We will be playing Sunday evenings, at Bell's Sensplex in Kanata, an ideal spot for those of you that live in the West of the city. The league starts on January 10th and we have room for 2 more coed teams and 6 more individual spaces. Registration is open and spaces are available on a first-come-first-served basis. You can find full details here.
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday - Winter Season Now Online
We already have around 80 teams playing during the week at the Carleton Fieldhouse, Hornet's Nest and Ben Franklin Domes. Registration for the winter seasons, kicking off in January and February, is now open. The new season starts immediately after the end of the current seasons and team spaces are available for the following leagues:
The fall season of all of these league sold out, register now to ensure your team's space in the league. You can find full details and registration on the Footy Sevens Website. Click on the team price to place your deposit and confirm your team's place.
The Final Pickup Soccer Games of 2020
Some mild weather and six hours of shovelling meant that we have been able to offer our popular outdoor pickup games for longer than expected. All good things come to end, though, and we are switching over to INDOOR PICKUP GAMES until spring. We have the first of our indoor pickup games at Carleton University this Thursday and Saturday at the Fieldhouse. Sign-up over at the Footy Sevens pickup website.
Have a great weekend everyone,
Andrew, Chris, Joel, Matt and Ryan, the Footy Sevens Team.
We are into the final few months of 2020 and what a year it has been. Providing government restrictions are lifted, we plan to operate our indoor leagues starting mid-November. The lineup looks different from past years and there have been some changes, as some of the facilities we have called home for past winter seasons are facing a delayed reopening. As a result, our new venue this winter will be the Sooner's Megadome located in Kanata. This state of the art facility is ideal for teams who live in the West or South End of Ottawa.
Please note, we currently only have enough space available to accommodate about 30% of the teams that are currently playing outdoor soccer with us. Registration is now open and you can sign-up as an individual or reserve your team's space with $250 deposit at the Footy Sevens website.
Our Guarantee To You - If any leagues are cancelled prior to their start date or cancelled at some point throughout the season, teams will have the option to receive a credit or refund for the unplayed games (prorata).
Coed Leagues
Mens Leagues
New League Additions
As the indoor facilities reopen, we expect to be offered some additional field time. We hope that we can use this to offer new leagues and if we are, the homepage will be updated and teams will be informed. If you have registered to a league and a new one works better for your team, we are happy to move registrations to better suit you.
Individuals
There will be a small number of individual spaces available this fall. Registration is open and you can sign up through the homepage.
Looking to get on the field before the start of the Winter leagues?
With the current restrictions, we are unable to run our leagues or pickup games until November 7th. If you are looking to get out, we have a couple of options for you to get some touches in.
Volleyball
While we don't have our usual great lineup of mixed 6s volleyball, we have returned to the fantastic central location at Carleton's newly refurbished Norm Fenn gymnasium. Registration is still open and the season will resume following the 28 day lockdown. Full details and registration can be found on the Ottawa Volley Sixes Website.
You can find the full details of each league on the Footy Sevens Website.
We know you and your teams will have a lot of questions about the forthcoming leagues and what will happen. Obviously, this is a season unlike any other since the league began. Here are some FAQs about the most common ones we think you will have.
