KC Trojans Soccer Association

About Us

KC Trojans history of excellence

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).

One Club. one family.

KC strives to create a community for our members.
