The 2016 Canada Soccer National Championships (officially the Sport Chek National Championships for sponsorship reasons) was the 94th staging of Canada Soccer's amateur football club competition. Edmonton Scottish won the Challenge Trophy after they beat Royal-Sélect de Beauport in the Canadian Final at the King George V Park in St. John's on 10 October 2016.

Twelve teams qualified to the final week of the 2016 National Championships in St. John's. In the Semifinals, Edmonton Scottish SC beat Saskatoon HUSA Alumni while Royal-Sélect Beauport beat Gloucester Celtic FC.

On the road to the National Championships, Edmonton Scottish beat Edmonton Green & Gold in the Alberta Cup Final.

Teams

[edit | edit source]

Twelve teams were granted entry into the competition; one from each Canadian province. In addition, as the host province, Newfoundland and Labrador was granted a second entry into the competition, while Alberta was also granted a second entry after the withdrawal of the Northwest Territories.[1]

Teams are selected by their provincial soccer associations; most often qualifying by winning provincial leagues or cup championships such as the Ontario Cup.

Venues

King George V Park in St. John's served as the tournament's main venue, with Topsail Field in Conception Bay South and the Mount Pearl Soccer Complex in Mount Pearl serving as secondary venues. The Feildian Grounds in St. John's and Diane Whelan Soccer Complex in Paradise hosted some consolation round games.[13]

Group stage

[edit | edit source]

The twelve teams in the competition are divided into four groups of three teams each, which then play a single-game round-robin format. The top two teams from each group advance to the knockout round, while the third-placed team enters a relegation tournament.[14]
