The Champions in the Provincial Cup division in the under 14, under 16, under 18 boys and girls categories qualify to attend the National Club Championships.
On the senior side, the association runs competitions for adult teams in the following categories for both Men and Women: Under 21, Classics (Women's over 35), Master (Men's over 35), Senior A Cup, and Senior B Cup. The Champions in the Senior A Cup divisions qualify to attend the National Club Championships.
These prestigious events offer teams from across British Columbia with the opportunity to compete against other teams in their age group and ability.

| Protesting Matches Officiated by an Unregistered Referee |
| Under BCSA regulations, the result of matches officiated by an unregistered referee may be protested by either a coach or team official. |
More Details
 The regulations of the British Columbia Soccer Association (BCSA) require all referees in British Columbia to register with the Association every year and that matches played under the jurisdiction of an affiliated district, club or league be officiated by a properly registered referee*. Under BCSA regulations, the result of matches officiated by an unregistered referee may be protested by either a coach or team official.
Properly registered referees may be identified by the referee badge they display on the chest of their uniform (see picture). For the coming season the badge shown to the right will display the year 2006-2007 in the panel at the top of the badge.
Please note that all Registered Coastal Referees should have the current year's badge by November 1, 2006 and all Registered Interior Referees should have the current year's badge by June 1, 2007.
* Rule 18 d) No person shall officiate as a referee in any competition under the sanction or jurisdiction of the Association who is not on the official list of the Association, but if for unforeseen circumstances a referee on the official list is unable to act, the teams affected shall agree on some other person in the emergency.
