PFACan’s leaders have played in competitions throughout the globe where player unions are the norm, not the exception.

​

They recognize, through their own experience, that the career of most professional footballers is short and precarious. For them, PFACan is an off-the-pitch opportunity to help develop the game in Canada by creating working conditions and post-career benefits that make the job of a professional footballer a viable and attractive career choice.

The collective and individual wisdom of PFACan’s Board of Directors is now being made available to the entire Canadian football community. These are individuals who pledge to work with key stakeholders to increase Canada’s visibility as a destination for elite competition.
