2020 Cavalry FC and CanPL Thread

Looks like the Cavs have opened up their online store & have some 2020 gear for sale, including a keeper kit!

The 2020 Scarf has me hopeful that the away jersey will be green as opposed to black.

Can't let Edmonton win!

Unfortunately no customization yet, but I'm going to be tempted to get a Carducci jersey once it's possible. I just couldn't bring myself to get a keeper name/number on a regular jersey.

I am just a huge fan of those Cavs jackets. And those black hoodies are on sale now too, $40! Picking one of those up and a new scarf as well! Have to retire the orange one that I got in 2018, the very first scarf the Cavs ever sold and pulled it rather quick in favour of the red ones... that'll be a collector's item 50 years from now hopefully

Cheers for not committing a jersey foul. Of course, anyone can get anything on any shirt they want. But sometimes it just ain't right.

Looks like the commissioner is officially acknowledging interest in a single site tournament return to play.

And some ridiculously attractive man did an interview with the league about the supporters scene in Calgary during the pandemic.

Hell of a place to do a tournament, just need the right pitch for it. That said, PEI in July to October is gorgeous.

I guess it's better than nothing. I'm not super excited about a setup like this because I enjoy actually going to the games.

I don't think this is going to be reality this year, IMO.

Not until the fall at the earliest... and even then, expect a ton of restrictions and reduced capacity.

[shermanator]

I wouldn't expect any live games for 2020.

Not likely at all. We'll mot likely be in some form of a second, possibly third wave of the virus at the end of summer/fall with no vaccine. Not much chance at all of fans in stands at sporting events.

Wouldn't Soccer Canada have to lift it's supsension first?

News dump.

CPL has approached PEI about hosting their season there. Would be on the island 60 days for a 36 game season. 14 day quarantine when they arrive. 14 day quarantine before they leave.

Langford is pitching hosting the league as well. I've heard OneSoccer is already moving their stuff out to Vancouver Island. It would make sense if they have to go later in the calendar year as Vancouver Island would have the best climate to accommodate it.

HFX Wanderers will begin resuming training on Monday

And Atletico Ottawa released their home shirt last night. I like it, although it's not much different than I would have expected.

Looks as though the league and their clubs are simultaneously putting out anti-racism statements. Given the whole lack of attention given to an actual racism allegation from last year, I thought it was a good time to counter with our own statement.

This sounds promising...

I have heard a rumour that the league will announce a 60 day tournament to compete the 2020 season shortly. Take this with a grain of salt, a shot of tequila, and a pint.
