FC Regina - Club Philosophy (Rewritten & Aligned to Strategic Plan 2024-28)
Futbol Club Regina (FC Regina) is Saskatchewan’s largest non-profit soccer club, providing accessible, development-driven programming for youth and adult players at every level of the game. Formed in 2014 through the merger of several long-standing Regina clubs, FC Regina is proud of its commitment to the Soccer for Life model and to offering meaningful soccer experiences from grassroots to elite competition.
The club operates under the leadership of a volunteer Board of Directors, supported by professional administrative and technical staff. Day-to-day operations are overseen by Executive Director TJ Singh, while all technical programming is guided by Technical Director Kevin Holness, whose extensive professional playing and coaching experience continues to shape the club’s strong technical identity.
We strive to instill a lifelong love of the game by offering quality programs for players of all ages and abilities. Whether athletes pursue high-performance pathways through Canada Soccer or choose to continue playing within our Men’s, Women’s, Co-ed, or Masters divisions, FC Regina ensures players are supported at every stage of their development. Many of our athletes have successfully advanced to collegiate and university programs across Canada and abroad.
Over 200 dedicated volunteers—coaches, managers, committee members, and officials—contribute to the strength of our club. FC Regina invests significantly in coach and referee development, providing ongoing education, mentorship, and opportunities for advancement. This commitment enhances the safety, quality, and consistency of the soccer experience for all participants.
