About Us  

Introduction:

 CDRA (Clandeboye and District Recreation Association) is a non profit community organization which  promotes and runs soccer programs at the house league level for children and adults. The area served includes, but is not limited to: Clandeboye, Petersfield, Netley, Matlock, Breezy Point, Oak Hammock and points in between. Other teams that we compete with come from Selkirk, East Selkirk, South St. Andrews and Mapleton. At this time our annual registered soccer enrolment is in the area of 175 children. We also organize a weekly adult casual league which attracts approximately 50 participants.

CDRA also operates the outdoor skating facility in Clandeboye and are aggressively pursuing a revitalization of that venue. 

History:

 The CDRA was formed in the 1980’s in order to streamline and amalgamate the existing recreation organizations. The Clandeboye Skating Club was responsible for the operation of the skating rink, and the Clandeboye Community Club was responsible for summer sports. The two organizations were combined, a constitution drawn up and an executive elected. With the decline in the popularity of baseball, soccer was introduced, and a pitch was created on the existing baseball diamond in Petersfield. A second mini pitch was also located in Petersfield due to availability of land.

As the sport has continued to grow through the years, field availability and deterioration have become an issue. In the fall of 2003 it was decided that the development of new pitches on available land, immediately adjacent to the Petersfield Curling Club, would be undertaken. As of the spring of 2005 surveying and leveling had began and grass will be seeded as weather permits.
