Oceanside Lions Football Club

Oceanside Lions Football Club teaches youth aged 7 to 13 football, in a safe, welcoming and structured environment.

Our players learn game fundamentals, with an emphasis on improved health, discipline, teamwork, leadership & fun.

We’re more than a football club, we’re family!

Atom Flag Football (Ages 7-9) is a safe & fun way for kids to learn the game!
There’s little to no contact in flag football, so it perfect for kids who might be hesitant to try the sport at first!
Some of these kids move up to our Peewee tackle team & some continue playing flag.
Peewee Tackle Football (Grades 5&6) Kids learn the to play football in a safe & welcoming environment. Most kids who sign up at this level don’t know how the game works yet, our coaches teach the fundamentals of the game. Our Peewee team proudly won the Island Championships in the Spring ‘24 VICFA season.
Junior Bantam Tackle Football (Grades 7&8) This is where our players evolve from “kids who play football” into “football players”. Junior Bantam football is more competitive & harder work, however the players really come out of their shells at this level. It is extremely rewarding for everyone involved.

Oceanside Youth Football Association invites 7-13 year olds to join our program. 

Tackle Football practices takes place in Parksville at Kwalikum Senior Secondary on Tuesday & Thursday 5:30-730.

Atom Flag football practice takes place Thursdays (Time TBD).  We will return to Ballenas Senior Secondary, spring 2025.

Our games are played on our home field and down island. We provide the equipment, you provide the enthusiasm.

We provide a ground up learning experience, teaching the fundamentals of football, so our players can have a fun and safe introduction to the sport.
