FC Continentals was founded in 2008 with the group of soccer enthusiasts like Igor Demitchev, Samad Kadirov and few others decided to establish the team for Russian-speaking community.

With the growth of the team our ambitions grow as well. The team became a huge success for Russian-speaking community. Players of more than 7 nationalities play for FC Continentals which makes us not only a team but a big family that unites people of different nationalities, religions, professions and interests. All this thanks to the beautiful game of soccer.

In numerous occasions we have been asked about the meaning of our team logo and the answer is the same: WE ARE THE CANADIAN SOCCER TEAM paying our tribute to our new home – Canada (red and white colors). As a soccer team based in Toronto we pay our tribute to the city we live in (blue and white colors).

We also pay our tribute to the native city of one of our founders – City of Vorkuta to always remember the history and bravery of people who live there.

We are always happy to see you, your family and your friends at our games. One thing you can trust – we will do everything we can and a little bit more to make you feel proud! The best is yet to come…

Yours truly,

FC Continentals
