Many alumni have gone on to represent our city and even the country in higher-level competitions, but more importantly, they carry with them the values and lessons learned from their time with us.

Did you know, Alphonso Davies is a former Striker? 

"I started playing during recess in school and then I joined a local soccer team at the time. It was a good way for me to make friends and adapt because I was new in Canada at the time. I have a lot of great memories playing with the Edmonton Strikers. My coach at the time Nick (Huoseh) is still with me as my agent, so we often share stories about those days with each other. Playing Soccer and being surrounded by the people I had around me in Edmonton helped shape me into the person I am today."  -Alphonso Davies
