This month we didn’t need an extension of the month of February. We’ve just made it and it isn’t even leap year. There is a Canadian flavor about BSC this month as Canada strives to play catch-up with the United States’ soccer programs.

Our featured “club” this month is Saskatoon Youth Soccer, where at this time of the year, the temperatures are sub-zero and snow is everywhere. But as you will see in the article, it does not stop them from playing – even 11 vs. 11 if they so choose.

A sad ending to the story we featured last month about Rebecca Johnstone, who was suffering from cancer. She was cheered up by a personal phone call from David Beckham, but it was not enough.

Geoff McCormick’s insider article about Crewe Alexandra last month was timely as English soccer looks closely at the academy development system. It is working in some places and not in others, but for Crewe, as the chairman points out, it is the lifeblood of the club and Crewe feel they are not being properly supported by the Powers-that-be!

As the Internet becomes more and more important in our lives, we report on a web on-line conferencing service used from Sea-to-Shining-Sea by a committee building a Long Term Player Development for soccer in Canada. Could this be a way for BSC to go?

Hope you find this month’s Newsletter interesting and as always, we welcome your comments.

Crewe's production line of talent could come under threat because of a cash crisis outside football's top flight.

Crewe chairman John Bowler told BBC Sport that many clubs outside the Premiership were struggling financially and youth set-ups may be sacrificed.

"We are finding it harder and harder to carry on such an extensive youth development scheme," said Bowler, whose club have produced a string of stars.

"We are doing it but that could come under challenge."
