The Canada Soccer National Development Centre and Canada Soccer EXCEL programs are full-time women's soccer development programs run by the Canadian Soccer Association in partnership with the various provincial associations to develop Canadian women's soccer players as part of the Canadian women's soccer pathway.[1][2] There are three National Development Centres in Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia and Regional EXCEL programs in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.[3]

The four National Development Centres enter teams in Canada's tier 3 women's leagues: League1 Ontario, League1 British Columbia, Ligue1 Québec, and League1 Alberta.
