Squad Notes
Goalkeeper Neven Fewster and midfielders Josh Belbin and James McGlinchey have each signed Development Contracts with Cavalry ahead of the club’s 2025 campaign, to bolster the squad’s depth during the competition. A player signed to a Development Contract must be a domestic Under-18 player and is eligible to make four appearances for a CPL club while maintaining his amateur status and ability to train and play with the amateur team that holds his registration.
This marks the second development contracts for Fewster, Belbin and McGlinchey, who all represent Cavalry FC U21 in League1 Alberta. All three previously signed development contracts with Cavalry in September 2024.
Cavalry FC has mutually terminated the contract of forward Lowell Wright and wishes him the best for the future.
