The Canada Soccer National Development Centre and Canada Soccer EXCEL programs are full-time women's soccer development programs run by the Canadian Soccer Association in partnership with the various provincial associations to develop Canadian women's soccer players as part of the Canadian women's soccer pathway. There are three National Development Centres in Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia and Regional EXCEL programs in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.

The four National Development Centres enter teams in Canada's tier 3 women's leagues: League1 Ontario, League1 British Columbia, Ligue1 Québec, and League1 Alberta.

NDC Ontario

Шаблон:Infobox football club The Canadian Soccer Association partnered with the Ontario Soccer Association, Own the Podium, Sport Canada, the Canadian Sport Institute Ontario, and Bill Crothers Secondary School in Markham Ontario, to launch its Regional EXCEL (REX) program in January 2018. The REX Super Centres provide top youth female players with a centralized, daily training program to develop their skills for players from U14 to U18 as part of Canada Soccer's Long-Term Player Development (LTPD) program.

In 2022, it was announced that the NDC Ontario program would join and enter a team in the League1 Ontario women's division. Their debut match occurred on May 22, finishing in a 1–1 draw against the Woodbridge Strikers. After finishing in second place in the regular season standings, NDC were crowned champions after defeating Alliance United FC in the playoff final in their debut season. In their second season, they won the Ron Smale Cup after finishing in first in regular-season standings, but fell in the playoff championship final to Alliance United in extra time.

Шаблон:Infobox football club In 2015, the Canadian Soccer Association partnered with the BC Soccer Association and the Vancouver Whitecaps FC to launch its regional EXCEL program which will be run as part of the Whitecaps FC Academy.

Their home games will take place at Ken Woods Field at the National Soccer Development Centre. They played their debut match on May 22, defeating the Victoria Highlanders 5-1.

During the 2022 regular season, the Whitecaps managed to finish second in the regular season standings and qualified for the Championship final, despite many of their university age players having to depart the team before the end of the season, leaving them with a roster composed of 14-17 year old players. In the Championship Final, the Whitecaps Girls defeated Varsity FC to win the inaugural women's League1 British Columbia title. In May 2023, the team participated in the 2023 Blue Stars/FIFA Youth Cup, winning the title. In the 2023 L1BC season, they won the league double, capturing the regular season title and the playoff championship, advancing to the Women's Interprovincial Championship.
