Overview
editSSCI was registered as a non-profit organization in 1993 to bring a permanent indoor soccer facility to the city of Saskatoon. The Kinsmen/Henk Ruys was completed first and opened in the winter of 1998.[1] The facility has four full size indoor soccer fields and is also used frequently for volleyball, box lacrosse, dodgeball, and roller hockey.[2]
With the growth of soccer in Saskatoon, a second facility was needed and the Saskatoon Soccer Centre was opened in the fall of 2006. It was built in conjunction with Centennial Collegiate.[1] This facility has two full size outdoor fields and indoors has a full size field as well as two hardcore titled fields.[3] The indoor soccer field is the largest indoor soccer field in Canada.[citation needed]
