Meet your 2025 Spectrum Thunder!

Spectrum Thunder Football is still recruiting players for our 2025 season!

Our training and practice sessions began in May and are ongoing! Come by the field and check out a session, get a feel for the team, the coaches, the field conditions.
 

Why should you play football?

Football teaches cooperation and teamwork, confidence, social skills and respect for others.  Football is a great form of exercise and it helps to improve and develop skills like throwing, catching, running, kicking, agility and coordination. AND its fun, gets you out of the classroom for a few hours, and can build lasting, lifelong friendships.
 

Do I need to buy equipment?

No! We provide most of the equipment you will need to play!  A $450 deposit cheque is required at the time of fittings and is held until equipment is returned.  It takes some responsibility to take care of this equipment, so do that, and it will cost nothing. You will need a good pair of cleats, and fitness wear for practices.  Some receiver players enjoy wearing gloves, so you might want those.
 

How much time commitment will football take?

Training and conditioning are great ways to get a feel for the routine of being a player. No further commitment needed - if you don’t feel that football is a good fit for you, there is no obligation to continue. Usually, practices are 3 days a week (following school) and 1 game day.  Game days (especially travel games) will excuse you from classes, so you’ll need to consider how to make up any missed assignments or exams.  In addition to practice and game days, you’ll be expected to participate in fundraising activities that benefit the Football club - these tend to happen on weekends, but are infrequent.
