History

The team has had a very storied history, considering it was formed by such a small diaspora group. The team played in the Canadian National Soccer League until 1975 when they purchased the Toronto Metros of the North American Soccer League to form Toronto Metros-Croatia. During this period the team attracted many soccer stars, such as Portuguese superstar Eusébio, and were successful enough that they won Soccer Bowl '76 -- a 3-0 win over the Minnesota Kicks -- at the Kingdome in Seattle. The Canadian National Soccer League, originally just the National Soccer League, until 1993, was a professional soccer league in Canada that existed from 1922 to 1997. ...

However, the NASL was never comfortable with the Croatia link (an obvious ethnic connection), and in 1978, the team was bought out, leaving the Toronto Blizzard in the NASL, while Toronto Croatia returned to the CNSL. In 1994, Toronto Croatia joined the Canadian International Soccer League. In 1997, a new league was formed, the Canadian Professional Soccer League, which Toronto Croatia joined in 1998. The club's successes despite the instabilities it found in each of the leagues in which it has played is a testament to what a small ethnic group could accomplish in North American sport.

Secondary Roles of the Club

Social

The club has and continues to play an important social role for the local Croatian community. Post World War II migration to Canada changed the demographic make-up of the country. Croatians along with other European migrants entered a society that was at the time quite unwelcoming to these new arrivals. Soccer clubs were formed based around ethnic communities. Toronto Croatia became a focal point for the local Croatian community, as it was just as much a social club as a soccer club. It provided Croatians with a place to gather where they could feel comfortable in their new home. A place where they could associate with their own and speak their mother tongue. The club allowed for the preservation and celebration of Croatian identity, tradition, culture and language, as well as promoting it to others. The club continues to be an important institution for the local Croatian community as Croatian culture and tradition gets passed onto the next generation.

Political

In its early years Toronto Croatia played an important political role, with the club being a symbol of Croatian nationalism. The local Croatian community was made up of people who had fled from the communist regime of Yugoslavia. Thus, Toronto Croatia served as a political statement of their desire for an independent Croatian state. Using the club, the community was able to promote and bring awareness to the Croatian plight and independence movement. This role continued into the 1990s, after Croatian independence in 1991, with the outbreak of war in Croatia and Bosnia. Toronto Croatia served as a symbol of pride for the community in this dark period, energizing the community’s support for the club. Since then with Croatia being independent and stable this political role no longer exists in the same manner.
