The The 2009 National Women’s Under-18 Championship will be hosted in the city of Surrey, British Columbia. Located at the crossroads of the Pacific Rim, Greater Vancouver and the United States, Surrey boasts a relaxed lifestyle; residential and city living combined with open country space. Surrey is bordered on the east by the Township of Langley and on the west by the Municipality of Delta. The southern boundary of the city is bordered by the Pacific Ocean, where sailing, boating and windsurfing can be enjoyed. Surrey is accessible to all major cities in the Lower Mainland via the SkyTrain rapid transit line. Vancouver is less than 35 minutes away via public transit.
