right here on ATCO Field at Spruce Meadows! 

Canada Soccer’s TELUS Canadian Championship, also known as the Battle of the North, is the nation’s highest men’s domestic competition featuring clubs from coast to coast across the country, notably professional teams in Major League Soccer and the Canadian Premier League as well as league winners in League1 BC, League1 Ontario and Ligue1 Québec.

Winners of the 2024 TELUS Canadian Championship lift the Voyageurs Cup and qualify the ​2025 Concacaf Champions Cup.

The TELUS Canadian Championship is a separate tournament which takes place alongside our Canadian Premier League Regular Season matches.

The results in this tournament do not affect our regular season standings.

The winner of this two-match series will advance to the Semi-Final round of the tournament

If we advance to the Semi-Final round, we would take part in a two-match series, with Leg 1 taking place between July 9–11, 2024 and Leg 2 taking place between August 27–29, 2024 (exact final dates and times will be announced if this is the case.)

The outcome of all TELUS Canadian Championship matches only impact our advancement in the tournament and have no influence on our placement in the 2024 Canadian Premier League Regular Season standings.

We made our tournament debut in 2019, where we notably won 2-1 against the Vancouver Whitecaps FC in the Semi-Final round of the tournament, which was the club’s best ever Canadian Championship cup run.

We have appeared in the tournament every year since (excluding 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID pandemic) and we will be on the hunt to make our first championship final round appearance in this year’s tournament.
