Deep River & Area Minor Soccer Club

Our Mission

The Deep River and Area Minor Soccer Club (DRAMSC) is a club promoting the beautiful game of soccer for children in the age from 5 to 18 years living in Deep River, Laurentian Hills, and Head, Clara, and Maria. Our main goal is to develop the character of young people as resourceful and responsible members of their community by providing opportunities, through the game of soccer, for their mental, physical, social and leadership development.

Programs Offered in 2026

Specific programs and age groups are currently under review due to updated regulations from Ontario Soccer and Canada Soccer.

At this time we are accepting registrations based soley on birth year so we will be able to pivot more easily once we have confirmed the direction we must go in.

Birth years accepted at this time are 2008-2021.

Timbits will still be offered twice a week, M/W, T/TH, based on division with the youngest players on M/W and the next division up on T/TH.

More information will be provided as we receive it.

Humidex Policy

Practices are at the discretion of the coach. If you haven't heard from your coach, assume practice is still being held.

U6 & U8 cancelations are at the discretion of the convenors.

Games will be canceled and rescheduled under the following circumstances:

U10 & U12: Humidex is 37 or higher
U14+: Humidex is 40 or higher

This decision is made at the league level at 4:00 pm based on Environment Canada's projected humidex for 7:00 pm in Pembroke. Martin Smith and Cheryl Smith will be notified by VUSL
in the case of a high humidex cancellation and the coaches will be contacted who will then contact their teams.

This policy is in accordance with Ontario Soccer's guidance. Players, coaches and parents should educate themselves regarding how to best handle heat and stay hydrated. Parents always have the final say.
