Soccer association envisions new pitch

Ollie Williams has a grand vision for soccer in the Northwest Territories.

The president of the Northwest Territories Soccer Association went before Yellowknife city council on Nov. 14 to present a “preliminary overview” of his group's plan to develop a new, full-size, enclosed soccer facility in Yellowknife.

Williams says there is “no adequate indoor and outdoor facility” in NWT that currently offers round-the-week access. Williams said the association has access to “significant private funding” for the project.
