Ottawafan

This is a trait amongst many young Canadian or American players, probably stemming from PTSD from their youth coaches constantly barking orders from the sidelines, rendering them incapable of holding onto the ball for more than three seconds. 

Feels like another large expense for clubs/teams/parents to absorb for minimal gain, especially when there is already a championship in place.

The PDP is a supplement to the Toyota National Championships in October, not a replacement. It's an exclusive competition, in that only clubs meeting the National Standards are allowed to participate. I am curious to see how things change overtime as more clubs fall in line with the national standards, but for the time being there are only clubs from Ontario, Quebec, BC and Alberta represented in these "national" competitions.
My "local" club, Calgary Rangers, meet the national standards, so they are eligible for this competition, provided they get through their provincial qualifiers (which they have done in a few age groups), but as far as I know they are still able to qualify for the Toyota National club championship if they win the Alberta provincials.
So, clubs meeting the National standards have two "national" club competitions to play for, while the rest of the clubs just have the one.

Should also help serve as a scouting combine 

Was working separately at the Inter training ground! On August 25th 2024! Today was a good day!

At first I wasn't sold on the white jersey but after getting one I loved it.  When we were in KC I noticed a few knockoff ones at the game that were a different shade... a cleaner white.  It wasn't until then that I noticed ours were more of a cream white.  Hence my need for laser eye surgery.

Look at dude's face. She obviously has a great ass.

I know…in hindsight, I should have been up there with you folks.

We took the cheaper tickets, saved the money and got in our steps climbing to our seats.  And we got as many insults thrown our way as you did for $300 less!!

$43 is very reasonable.

Many of the CSA's revenue streams were handed over to CSB for up to 20 years. The MLS Canada Men's National Team Head Coach angle was necessary to undo some of the damage that caused.

I think I mentioned it earlier in this thread but if Sigur was called in to our U20s when he was with York University, this board would have been calling for heads to roll.
Development is a funny thing and so are development pathways, especially in this country. We just a dude who was playing community college ball transfer to Ligue 1.

It's crazy what a real qualified coach/manager can do with an athlete. 
I'll say it again, Canada's biggest obstacle is adequate coaches to help develop our athletes.  The academies and even CPL are nowhere near the level they should be.  
Examples: Poku has played 7 different positions in 12 months.  The guy is a gem, yet they have no idea what they have in their hands, just rolling the dice.  JMR was being played at RB FFS.

Yeah, we aren’t happy about the Ticketmaster fees nor have we been for a while (I won’t speak for Canada Soccer but I’m sure they aren’t thrilled either).  But it’s been a long time since the south end of BMO was $20 and with inflation, I wouldn’t expect tickets to be that price again.  
The other issue is that if the team were to play a game in a smaller stadium, ticket prices would have to start at around $50 plus fees to make up for the smaller capacity.  At least it’s not $650 to watch a Copa America game in NY or Atlanta but Panama ain’t Argentina either.

I'd really love to see you tonight ... if you commit to Canada Jebbison!
