British Columbia Soccer Association
# British Columbia Soccer Association

BC Soccer is the governing body of adult and youth soccer in British Columbia, Canada. They are the head association for all FIFA affiliated soccer associations in BC. BCSA is located in Vancouver, British Columbia's largest city. There are different levels of play under this association. The British Columbia Soccer Premier League (BCSPL) is the highest level of play, followed by the Metro Select League (MSL), and then what was commonly known as "Gold", "Silver", "Bronze", and "House". These categories have now been changed to a divisional tiering beginning with Division 1, Division 2, and so on, where promotion and relegation processes align with professional leagues. These divisions are split by age, gender, and geographic location.

### Youth

**BC Soccer Premier League**

The BC Soccer Premier League or BCSPL is the highest level of youth soccer in the province. It was established in 2011 as a standards-based youth league in partnership with Vancouver Whitecaps FC to support player development pathways at the U13 to U18 age groups. Each season culminates with the BC Premier Cup to determine a provincial champion, where the champions at the U15 and U17 levels will advance to the CSA National Championships.

**Divisional leagues**

Below the BCSPL, regional youth soccer leagues are divided into tiers of Division 1 (formerly Metro), Division 2 (formerly Gold), and Division 3 (formerly Silver and Bronze), to ensure there is meaningful competition for each participating team. The highest ranked teams in Division 1 and Division 2 leagues qualify for the Provincial A and B Cup competitions.
