Summary

In the off season a dispute occurred between the Canadian Soccer League, and the Canadian Soccer Association (CSA) after the CSA unexpectedly removed sanctioning to the CSL just months before kickoff.^[1] The issue was resolved after the CSL appealed to the Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada (SDRCC), where the sport arbitrator forced the governing body to reinstate sanctioning to the CSL for another season.^[2]^[3] Meanwhile York Region made preparations for the 2013 season by assigning longtime team manager John Pacione with head coach responsibilities. Pacione assembled a roster with a mixture of imports with International and European experience along with Vaughan`s traditional veteran core players. In the initial stages of the season the club experienced a slight delay in performance, but quickly rebounded with an eight match undefeated streak. The team managed another undefeated streak with five matches, and concluded the regular season as runner`s up in the First Division.

Throughout the season York Region posted the second best defensive record, and the third best offensive record. The club also produced another solid home field performance by only losing two matches at home. In the postseason the Shooters were eliminated from the tournament in the opening round to London City SC in a penalty shootout.^[4] In the Second Division the reserve team was managed by league veteran Sam Medeiros,^[5] where they managed to secure a playoff berth by finishing seventh in the standings. In the preliminary round they defeated Niagara United B, but were knocked out by Toronto Croatia B in the semifinals.^[6]

York Region also formed a partnership with Empoli F.C. through the Italian Soccer Management, which provides opportunities for camps and scouting of players.^[7]
