About Vision Youth Charity Soccer Tournament
The Vision Youth Charity Soccer Tournament is a premier Markham soccer tournament that brings together players, families, and supporters for a day of competition, community, and giving back.
As an annual charity soccer tournament, we promote healthy living, sportsmanship, and youth leadership while creating opportunities for players of all ages to develop skills, build friendships, and enjoy the game. Inspired by the excitement of tournament season, we believe that every soccer legend starts somewhere.
2026 Special Feature Match
One of the most exciting features of this year’s Markham Soccer Tournament is the participation of four special community teams:
⚽ York Regional Police Soccer Team vs. City of Markham Soccer Team
⚽ Millennium United (Mississauga) vs. Super Friends Club (Markham) — an exciting inter-city friendly celebrating sportsmanship and community connections across the GTA.
These featured matches showcase the power of soccer to connect youth, families, community leaders, and local organizations while supporting a meaningful soccer fundraiser.
Supporting Youth Leadership Through Soccer
All proceeds support the Vision Youth Leadership Program, helping empower young people through leadership development, volunteerism, and community service.
By participating in this youth and adult soccer tournament, sponsoring the event, or cheering from the sidelines, you are helping create opportunities for youth and strengthen our community.
Join us on August 2, 2026, for a memorable day of soccer, teamwork, and community impact.
