A community league is a volunteer, not-for-profit organization formed to meet the needs and interests of residents within a defined geographic area.  Community leagues are recognized by the City of Edmonton as the primary speaking body for the community. Leagues are part of a network of neighbourhood-based organizations operating under the umbrella of the Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues (EFCL)

Any resident within the boundaries of the community may become a member.  A leagues membership is responsible for electing a board of directors, which is responsible for the overall operation of the league.  A common function of community leagues is to bring neighbours together and typically to undertake the following;

  • provide recreation and social programs such as soccer, basketball, learn-to-skate, family events, movie nights, discussions, etc.

  • develop amenities such as a community hall, rink, playground, community garden and basketball courts

  • represent the community at large on matters of the appropriate order of government and other organizations like traffic issues, new developments, housing, crime prevention, etc.
