Father Michael Troy, founder of Knights of Columbus Trojan Soccer Association, was born in Ireland, trained in Switzerland, and came to Edmonton via Toronto in 1964. In Edmonton, he continued his career which saw him become a well respected cleric, educator, coach, author, mentor, and friend to numerous people in our area. In the mid 70’s he formed our first KC team with graduates from St Joseph’s and Archbishop O’Leary High Schools. Our association grew and became incorporated in 1979. Fr. Troy was always passionate about soccer and sports in general, having been a elite level athlete himself in soccer, rugby, and track. His vision was the guiding force behind the association we have today and the respect that the name KC Trojans has in the soccer community. Father Troy passed away in March of 2010 at the age of 92. KC was a founding member of the Edmonton Interdistrict Youth Soccer Association and is now a proud member of EMSA (Edmonton Minor Soccer Association).
KC strives to create a community for our members.
KC Trojans coaches are highly qualified with many coaches holding a C level license from the Alberta Soccer Association. Our Technical Training is provided by award winning coaches from the International Soccer Academy of Edmonton. Our Academy coaches are former professional players and know what it takes to reach the next level.

Grassroots soccer refers to the foundational level of the sport that consists of young players who are just starting their soccer journey. The importance of grassroots soccer cannot be overstated, as it plays a crucial role in the overall development and growth of the sport, as well as in the holistic development of young individuals. Here are some key reasons why grassroots soccer is important:
1. **Player Development:** Grassroots soccer serves as the foundation for nurturing young talent and developing their skills. It's at this level that players learn the basics of the game, including technical skills, tactical understanding, teamwork, and sportsmanship. Proper coaching and guidance at this stage are essential for producing well-rounded players who can eventually progress to higher levels of competition.
2. **Inclusivity and Access:** Grassroots soccer provides an accessible platform for players of all backgrounds and skill levels to participate in the sport. It promotes inclusivity, giving opportunities to individuals who might not otherwise have access to organized sports due to financial constraints or other barriers.
3. **Health and Fitness:** Engaging in grassroots soccer promotes physical activity and fitness among young people. Regular participation in the sport helps combat sedentary lifestyles and associated health problems, contributing to healthier and more active communities.
4. **Life Skills:** Beyond the soccer field, grassroots programs emphasize important life skills such as discipline, time management, communication, teamwork, leadership, and problem-solving. These skills are valuable for personal development and success in various aspects of life.
In summary, grassroots soccer serves as the foundation upon which the entire soccer ecosystem is built.
