THE MUSEUM

While incidental displays of artifacts have been mounted on several occasions previously, the Museum was opened formally on Saturday, May 5, 2001 at The Soccer Centre, Vaughan, Ontario. The occasion was the first of a year-long series of events to celebrate the centennial of The Ontario Soccer Association.

You are welcome to visit the Museum either on days of special soccer functions, or by appointment. There you will see a panoply of our treasures and the "Wall" of Fame which was built to honour our Inductees. School and group tours will gladly be accommodated, but only by appointment.

Making a Donation in Kind

The Soccer Hall of Fame and Museum seeks and collects archival and artifactual material related to the game in the Province of Ontario and throughout Canada, and would be grateful for your support in "Discovering more of our Heritage".

Here are a few examples of artifacts which may illustrate the changes in and the development of the game through the years.
