How long is my CRC good for? 

NWSC follows the BC Soccer standard of three years.

If you were cleared for 2019/20 you’re cleared to start training in 2020/21.

  • We’re doing a reconciliation once we have everyone loaded in the registration system, during which everyone with CRCs expiring in the 2020/21 season will be contacted with directions.
