As expected, Toronto FC announced this morning that its new $17.5 million training facility will be located at Downsview Park.
The facility, which will include three outdoor grass fields and one bubble enclosed turf field, is slated to open in April 2012.

The project, funded fully by MLSE, will be the new home for Toronto FC management, while operations staff will still be housed at BMO Field.
The full academy roster, now including age groups as young as 13, will call the facility their home, while a number of affiliated feeder club from the Greater Toronto Area are also expected to make use of the complex.
Canadian Soccer News will have more on this announcement and what it means to the talent pool in Canada later in the day.
