Young athletes and fans will gather in Greater Moncton this week.

It’s all part of the 2023 Canada Soccer Toyota National Championships U-17 Cup.

We look forward to welcoming participants, families, and spectators to experience Moncton’s warm hospitality and passion for ‘the beautiful game,” says Moncton Mayor Dawn Arnold.
