A Brief History of Senior Soccer in Prince George : from an article by Shafeed Rahman.(1999) – (with updates, photos and additional history by Terry Carter, the PG Library Digital Newspaper Archives and the Exploration Place Historic Photo Repository)
“Like many communities throughout British Columbia, Prince George’s sports heritage owes much to the immigrants who brought their passion for home grown games to a new land and a look at the rich history of soccer in Prince George proves this. The game of soccer in PG can be traced as far back as the first World War, but neither time nor resources were available to do justice to the early years of soccer here.
I am indebted to two PG soccer legends, Hans Niedermayer(deceased) and Jim Briggs(deceased) who gave some interesting accounts of soccer over the last four decades, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Gratitude also to Gaetano Mauro and Nick Rukavina for their assistance, and I regret that I wasn’t able to interview John DaSilva(deceased) and others who played a tremendous role in the development of soccer in Prince George”. Shafeed Rahman 1999.
The major soccer trophies played for in Prince George start with the Montgomery Shield awarded first in 1913, then came the Perry Cup awarded in 1921 followed by the Jimmy James Trophy (League) in 1955 and in the same year Spaners Menswear donated a trophy for District Competition also they donated a trophy for the Prince George Soccer League Champions.

Mr Neville Montgomery was a Barrister and also operated a jewelers store in the townsite. He donated both the Shield and medals for the winners in 1913. This Shield was played for till around 1932. (tc)

1913 – Nov 1st – Report from the Fort George Herald
“The Montgomery Shield, coveted trophy for football players, was won last Sunday by the Fort George team by a score of 1-0. Throughout the game the local boys put up a splendid battle for the trophy, but the heavier players from Nechaco townsite proved too strong for them, and in spite of the excellent play of the local team were unable to score. Murray, for the Fort George team, played a splendid game, scoring the only goal. Both teams played for all that was in them, and without a doubt was the fastest event on the football card for the year. This was the first sporting trophy that has ever been won by the Nechaco town in competition against South Fort George.”
1913 November 8th a football game is scheduled to be played on the South Fort George fields between South Fort George and the Foley, Welch and Stewart (Construction)Boys.

1966 – The North Cariboo Soccer League forms, but BCSA refuses to register the league as it was “…too troublesome.”” In the seasons 1966 to 1970, the game was almost entirely played by immigrants who formed teams of similar ethnic groups. This, sadly, led to emotional outbursts related more to national pride than the game of soccer and trouble was a frequent bystander at our games. As a result the league was rarely completed and visits to courtrooms were not uncommon.” – unknown former player
” It was ugly in the beginning. We had all ethnic teams and there were fights every game. The police even had to come out and oversee the games. But then we got some organization and proper referees and order came about.” – League ref and pioneer John DaSilva

In 2011 The NCSSL realigned the league into Open/Over 30/ Over 45 Division’s.
2015 May 11 – NCSSL Starts Over 50,s Soccer
2017 Season saw Open and 45+ Divisions with the addition of a 50+ Drop In Game.
2017 After 12 months of preparation and organization the PGWSA and the NCSSL presented their respective members with an opportunity to decide the future of senior soccer in PG. A special resolution was presented and a vote took place during the week of August 21st to 24th to Amalgamate both the mens and womens soccer clubs into one organisation. The resulting votes were tallied and an overwhelming majority by both clubs resulted in a YES vote for Amalgamation. The process now begins to bring the the two clubs Constitution and By-Laws together.
2018 May Saw the full amalgamation between the NCSSL and the PGWSA for a 3 year trial and the Prince George Soccer Association(PGSA) was formed.
2020 – 2029
2020 April Due to the Covid health emergency situation ALL sports were shut down till further notice.
2021 Jan 18th – At the Annual General Meeting of the Prince George Soccer Association a vote was taken by the members to complete the 3 year trial period of the Amalgamation between the NCSSL and the PGWSA. The members duly voted in favour of this and the league is now a joint venture named Prince George Soccer Association.
2021 PGSA Struggled to open the season due to Covid 19 restrictions but by late May the season finally got under way. A lot less players and teams with a shortage of officials to fully run the games but it started. There were game cancellations due to rain but the smoke from the province wide fires held off.
The league saw a full schedule of games culminating with not only the regular season playoffs but a well thought out Co-ed end of season tournament. With plenty of teams and over 120 players even the weather cooperated. The Saturday night meal and Karaoke was a huge success. Look forward to next year.
2022 Mar 13th Divisions for the upcoming season are decided.
Womens: Div 1 Competitive, Div 2 Recreational, Div 3 Recreational.
Mens: Div 1 Competitive, Div 2 Recreational, Over 50’s.
The Over 40 Division has been dissolved and brought into the Recreational Division 2.
2023 Divisions for this season are Mens Division 1 and 2, Womens Division 2 and 3, CO-ED Drop in, Over 50’s Drop In, Over 45’s Drop In.
The season got of to a cracking start with a well attended Ice Breaker Weekend.
After many years absence the 2023 Mens Division 2 saw the inclusion of an Under 18 Team from the PGYSA. Sponsored by Bruno’s Concrete they have shown great promise and are definitely on the right path.
