Who are we?
Discover Rêves Passion Montréal, an NPO that works for the development of inclusive and accessible soccer for all in Montreal.
The adult soccer league initiative was born out of the Rêves Passion Montréal children's program.
In order to fund the activities of its children's program offering free soccer activities to children from the most disadvantaged Montreal communities, Rêves Passion Montréal has established the soccer league for adults. Since its first matches, the majority of the league's profits have been used for the development of the Rêves Passion Montréal children's program.
Both born from the same vision, combining both the benefits of sport for adults and educational development through sport for children, they promote active integration into the community and the enhancement of self-esteem for both.
Our history
It all started at SUMMER 2011, for the first time, a youth team from Habitations Jeanne-Mance joined the Sports Passion Montréal mixed 5×5 urban soccer league for six weeks of championship in the heart of the Latin Quarter. Rich integration experience, it was very successful and definitely opened the door to the future integration of youth teams into the official Sports Passion Montréal soccer championship.
SINCE 2015 we decided to focus 100% on soccer for both children and adults, so the program for children was called Urban Soccer for Dream and Hope.
SINCE 2017 This program is supported by the FIFA FOUNDATION and between 2021 and 2023 by the UEFA FOUNDATION FOR CHILDREN. Thanks to this valuable support, in the years to come, we will be able to offer our activities to a large number of community centers in Greater Montreal and the rest of Quebec.
