Our Story
Burnaby Spartans FC began with one simple goal: to build a club where everyone belongs.
Whether you’ve played competitively for years or just discovered the game, Spartans is your home. From day one, we’ve welcomed folks of all backgrounds—players of every gender, race, skill level, and experience.
What started as a few friends on the pitch is now a thriving, inclusive community across 5s, 7s, and 11-aside leagues—men’s, women’s, and coed.
Some of our most experienced players choose to play down a level. Not for trophies, but for the joy. The friendships. The Friday night turf talks.
We play for each other.
And we’re just getting started.
Our Mission
To create a soccer club where everyone feels welcome—no matter your gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, identity, or ability.
We believe in football for everyone. For those who want to win—and those who just want to belong. For folks chasing their first goal—or their hundredth.
This is a place to grow, to connect, to show up and be valued—on and off the field.
This is Spartans.

Say hi to our team
Meet the folks behind Burnaby Spartans FC. We’re a passionate crew of managers, coaches, and volunteers who believe in football for everyone. Some of us met on the pitch, some through community leagues—but we came together through a shared mission: to grow something inclusive, competitive, and fun from the ground up.
Each of us brings a unique voice, but we’re united by one thing—the love of the game.
