Description

Italia Shooters, also known as Vaughan Italia Shooters are a Canadian soccer team, founded in 1998. The team is a member of the Canadian Soccer League, the highest professional soccer league in Canada, and play in the International Division.

The team first entered the league as Glen Shields in 1998, but changed their name to the Glen Shields Sun Devils the following year. They changed their name again, this time to the Vaughan Sun Devils in 2002, and then after merging with the York Region Shooters in 2003, became the Vaughan Shooters prior to the 2004 season. With the creation of the new International Division, and to celebrate the club’s strong Italian heritage, the club changed its name yet again, becoming the Italia Shooters in 2006.

The Shooters currently play their home games at The Soccer Centre in the city of Vaughan, Ontario, around 12 miles north-east of downtown Toronto. The team's colors are blue and white, mirroring those of the Italian national football team.
