African Canadian Soccer & Cultural Association

Dear Fans from all over the continents,

On behalf of the 2012 African Soccer and Cultural Festivities, ACSCA would like to welcome all the teams, fans, sponsors, and volunteers to our 18th Annual Soccer Tournament and Cultural Festival.

We hope you all enjoyed your different Fall and Spring Leagues and other cultural events and are now ready for some more multi–cultural soccer excitement as well as entertaining Cultural performances with ACSCA on August 10-12, 2012 at our home fields Burnaby Lake Sports Complex East.

But before the 18th Annual Festival, ACSCA would like to welcome you back to the Formal ACSCA Annual Awards to be held on Saturday May 19, 2012 at the Diamond Banquet Hall on 7845 Edmonds Street, Burnaby. We hope to build on the huge success and support from within the African community and friends of Africa that we received last year.

As an Annual custom, these awards are intended to recognize local individuals within our community that have demonstrated their skills and talents during the tournament and or the All-Star games, as well as African Associations and African Businesses that have gone far and beyond their normal business to serve the African Community and ACSCA to be specific.

Successful individuals are nominated by all team managers of the African Soccer Tournament and screened in based on PERFORMANCE and DISCIPLINE. Nominated individuals will be awarded and recognized at the Dinner Gala on Saturday May 19, 2012.

Back to the 18th Annual African Soccer and Cultural Festival; this year's tournament is intended to provide a time of quality soccer, showcasing the variety of talent from many ethnic backgrounds and ages from around the world. We also promote player development through the children's mini soccer tournament as well as the female soccer stars. We encourage parents to bring their children and get them to participate, as they are our future soccer players. This tournament also provides an excellent opportunity for people to meet and exchange ideas for unity. Each year, the annual soccer tournament has grown to become a great event which has been celebrated by the whole soccer community. Thank you for being a part of this great community  initiative.

We would also like to thank our sponsors, prize donors, advertisers and volunteers for their service, time and commitment. Good luck to everyone and we hope to have a joyful summer.

Sincerely,
ACSCA Management
