Beach Soccer
Is the multi-court reserved for City of Kelowna beach soccer leagues?
The multi-court is reserved for Kelowna Sports’ Beach Soccer Leagues on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 5:30 p.m. to dusk at Gyro Beach. Otherwise, courts are available to the general public when tournaments and/or events aren’t running.
What are the lines for the beach soccer pitch?
The pitch boundaries of 30×40 yards are drawn by teams upon arrival.
The penalty box spans a rectangular 10×30 yards. Four cones (provided by the City) mark this area placed along the side line 10 yards from each corner.
Staking portable lines is not permitted due to unmarked underground utilities.
Are the beach courts maintained through the week?
Gyro Beach courts are groomed regularly through the week during the spring and summer. Grooming service may not coincide with your game time or night of play.
Unpredictable weather and public use (i.e. sticks, litter, etc.) may affect the courts.
Teams will want to do a sweep of their court area prior to warming up to ensure player safety.
What if the current or forecasted weather looks like the game will be rained out?
Your team must show up to the game. Do not assume the game is cancelled. Once at the court (and after a 10 minute rain delay has expired) both teams can decide to re-schedule the match.
Team captains needs to agree on a day/time prior to contacting the league coordinator to book a court.
Re-scheduled games will be based on court availability and may not be possible.
Can alcohol be brought to the beach courts?
Alcohol is not allowed on the beach courts at any City park. Consumption of alcohol in a non-licensed public place is illegal and enforceable by the RCMP.
There is an issue with the beach soccer nets.
Beach soccer nets are installed by the City of Kelowna. If there are issues with the net, please notify staff as soon as possible (ideally with a picture of the problem) so it can be addressed as quickly as possible.
Can I wear shoes?
No shoes or cleats are allowed. To protect your feet, wear one or more pairs of socks.
Is there parking at the beach courts?
Parking is available at the Boyce-Gyro beach courts. Use the Pay by Phone app or the onsite parking meter. Allow extra time and read parking lot signs for parking hours and rates.
What do I do if there are people playing on our scheduled courts?
Politely request that the individuals or group playing on the beach court free it up for your team to play your scheduled league game. Signs are posted to inform the public of the priority use for our programs on the beach courts during these times.
