A victory by FC Vorkuta over EURU Academy at Centennial Stadium Saturday, October 9, will clinch the league title for Vorkuta in regular season matches leading to the playoffs in pursuit of the ProSound Cup.
A revised 4 pm kickoff time for the FC Vorkuta vs. EURU Academy has been announced following a postponement of the Scarborough SC vs St. Catharines Hrvat match originally scheduled for a 2 pm kickoff and followed in the original schedule by Atletico Sporting Toronto vs Toronto Tigers at 4 pm and EURU Academy vs FC Vorkuta at 6 pm. The revised schedule for Saturday is now a double-header:
2 pm Atletico Sporting Toronto vs Toronto Tigers
4 pm EURU Academy vs FC Vorkuta
The Scarborough SC vs St. Catharines Hrvat game was postponed due to a COVID-19 exposure of a number of St. Catharines Hrvat players at an event not associated with the team’s games in the Canadian Soccer League. The players have followed all official health protocol measures including quarantine which ends on Sunday, October 10. The Scarborough SC vs St,Catharines Hrvat match has been placed in default in favour of Scarborough SC.
There will be one game to be played to complete the regular season following Saturday’s double header, the remaining BGHC1 vs St. Catharines Hrvat clash is tentatively set for Tuesday, October 12 and the playoff schedule will be announced during the week.
