About Us
FC Yellowknife was founded in 20??? by a group of friends who got tired of losing to Yellowknife's other pretend football team. We play a fast, physical, occasionally frostbitten style of football."
Our home ground, the Permafrost Pitch, is regulation size in July and roughly the size of a Zamboni rink from October through May. We have never won a trophy, but we have won several long arguments about whether that one goal in 2019 was offside. (It was.)
Our club motto, FILL IN"
Our Sponsor
Proudly held together by a local business who owed someone a favour.

The Squad
Built different. Mostly by the cold.
Sven "Ice Cold" Johansson
Goalkeeper · #1Has not felt his hands since 2016. Has also not let one in since 2016 (unconfirmed — no one can find the stats sheet).
Marie-Claude "The Aurora" Tremblay
Striker · #9Top speed drops to a brisk walk below −30°C, which is still faster than the rest of the defence.
Dwight "Two-Ply" Whitehorse
Defender · #4Named Employee of the Month at the mine six times. Named team captain zero times. Still bitter.
Kenji "Blizzard" Nakamura
Midfielder · #7Once played a full 90 minutes in a whiteout. We're still not entirely sure he found the ball.
"Big" Gord Halvorsen
Head CoachMotivational strategy consists entirely of the phrase "it's not that cold."
