Thunder Bay Chill are a Canadian soccer team, founded in 2000. The team is a member of the United Soccer Leagues Premier Development League (PDL), the fourth tier of the American Soccer Pyramid, and plays in the Heartland Division of the Central Conference against teams from Boulder, Des Moines, Kansas City, Springfield and St. Louis.

The Chill currently play their home games at Chapples Park in the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The team's colors are white and blue.

Thunder Bay are the current USL Premier Development League champions, having defeated 2007 champions Laredo Heat in a penalty shootout, following a 1-1 draw in the championship game. The Chill earned the win despite playing much of the second half and both extra time periods short one man due to a red card. The championship is the first ever for a Canadian team in the PDL.
