I'll be there.

[Slava]

I'm going also, and it would be good to meet a couple CPers!

I was hoping to be there tonight but can’t quite swing it

A CP meet up before one of the games this season would be great fun

Was hoping to go, but my company booked a social club event tonight. Should have committed to the Cavs and told my company I was already busy

I was hoping to make it, but unfortunately will not be able to get there.

I'm here! Got here at 5 and could only find a table in the weird little middle room between the main room and patio.

[Redliner]

See you guys there. I’ll be the one wandering around looking lost because I don’t know anyone!

[agulati]

Is there a way to get the flex pack of tickets, without pre-choosing the games to attend?

[browna]

Green alternate kit looks ok.

Prefer the one from the opening season still, which is a bit cleaner.

I like it a lot. The new scarf is super nice too - a couple different shades of green in there. I like the black & olive drab mixed in there and actually wish the jersey had a little bit more contrast to it. Overall they did a great job.

[The Big Chill]

Both of our kits look fantastic. I’m very tempted to pick up the green one already.

I like the alternate kit but not as much as the 2019 camo kit. Possibly as that was the first Cavalry kit I ever bought, just don't like the chevrons as much. Either way, picked up both kits last night.

Ended up winning a Big Rock flannel shirt and hat. A couple Foot Soldiers won a game worn Labbe kit and a signed Cavalry kit.

Was a good night and I'm pumped for the start of the season.

York's alternate is nice...

York actually has one of the nicest kit sets in the league this year IMO.

Is the sizing the same as previous years?

Yeah, it's either terrible for the ego or good, depending on how you view it!

I also picked up the alternate last night as I couldn't resist. I know some people don't like the diamonds/chevrons, but I think they're awesome. I also like the touch of red on the alternate and touch of green on the home shirts.

Can confirm. Macron has been pretty consistent with their sizing save for the 2020 away.

Sounds like the three D3 leagues (League1 BC, League1 Ontario, PLSQ) are coming together to form "League1 Canada".

Cool! I like that it is a harmonization at best practices, pathway development, etc. This gives a level of standardization across the country, and allows young players to a more definable structure to (I'm guessing) the CPL, MLS, and professional soccer.

I would think this would also help formalize a more sophisticated Canadian Championship format, as well, as allow for inter-league tournaments and even exhibition play with CPL teams.

I am also hoping for (one day) a promotion/relegation system with CPL, but I dream a lot.
