United DFC Need to Know: November 20 - November 27, 2025
Welcome to United DFC’s weekly Need To Know newsletter. Our aim is to keep you informed about everything that is going on inside the club. Watch for your update every Friday.
Soccer NS Awards Update
Last month we proudly announced our UDFC club award winners at our 2nd Annual Awards Night. At this event we announced the UDFC nominees for the upcoming Soccer NS Awards night. Although all are extremely worthy, not all of our nominees can win the Soccer NS award for which they are nominated. We will announce the Soccer NS Award winners later this month.
We would also like to share a late nomination with you. Congratulations to the UDFC U18A boys team from Summer 2025. This team was our Male team of the year nominee.
Male Team of the Year, Soccer NS Award Nominee - U18 A Boys
????UDFC is proud to nominate the U18A Boys for the Male team of the year. This was a team that almost didn’t happen and faced a lot of adversity in the beginning. Thanks to the commitment of the adults involved and players pulling together, this team became something truly special.
They united out of love for the game, welcomed U15 call-ups, and grew through heart and perseverance. Against all odds, they ultimately won their division and invited those U15 players to sign the banner. They reminded us that being a great team isn’t about how you start but how you grow together. Congratulations on a season to remember and congratulations on your nomination.

Quiet Soccer
Registration is now open for our award-winning Quiet Soccer Program, Fridays at Crichton Park Elementary School Gym (6:00-6:45 PM). This program is designed for children aged U5-U12 who prefer a calmer, low-sensory soccer environment with smaller groups and extra support. Cost is $75. Join us for a fun, inclusive soccer experience where every player can feel comfortable and confident!
Reminder: ECV Field Use & Safety Guidelines
As our indoor season gets underway, we’d like to remind everyone that only players scheduled to be on the field are permitted inside the turf area at East Coast Varsity (ECV) during practices. For safety reasons, siblings and parents are not allowed on the field unless they are part of the session. Additionally, if your team’s session is next, please wait until the current session has finished before stepping onto the field. This helps us keep transitions smooth and ensures a safe, organized environment for all players and coaches. Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and respectful training space.
