Sports - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Wexford Soccer Club was founded in 1967, Canada's Centennial year. The Club is located in the east end of Toronto in the borough of Scarborough. Before 2020 the club had 1150 house league and 325 representative players playing in its program. Over the years, its representative teams have compiled an enviable record and have won many Provincial and National championships. Wexford is in its 54th Year of operation and is the longest running soccer club in Scarborough. Prior to 2019, Wexford had won over 40 Ontario Cup championships - more than any other club in Scarborough. The Club began informally in 1967 when the primary founder Ed Webster and four other fathers organized coaches and teams to begin play. Much of the first year was communicating the schedule and simply finding a field to play. First year club registration started initially with 56 players and has grown over the years to its present registration of over 1300 players. A small club by present standards, the club has lived by the belief that you can only put '11 players on the field at a time', and regardless of size, has managed to build an enviable record of champions for the club.The Club started out as a club for boys only aged 8-14 years. Fees were $3.00 per boy and if enough boys joined then sweaters and crests would be provided.The Club's colours are maroon and white and has remained the same since the club formed. In fact, the colours are in the club's constitution and there are no plans to change them.Even though we are a smaller community-based club, we have punched above our station for decades. Every year, we have players that regularly go onto play at college level in the States or turn professional.
