January 23, 2024 – Canadian Premier League (CPL) – Forge FC News Release
Forge FC released Tuesday its complete 2024 regular season schedule, presented by WestJet, in anticipation of the kickoff of the club’s sixth season.
Full details and team schedule are now available at forgefc.canpl.ca/schedule.
Forge FC’s journey to top the 2024 regular season standings, lift the Canadian Premier League Shield and earn an automatic berth in the 2025 Concacaf Champions Cup will begin on Saturday, April 13 and wrap up on Saturday, October 19. All eight CPL clubs will kick off simultaneously on the final day of the season, jockeying for playoff position in what promises to be a thrilling regular season finale.
Forge FC’s 2024 regular season schedule will once again feature 28 matches played from coast to coast. The club will compete with all seven of its opponents twice at home and twice on the road over the course of the season, for 14 home matches and 14 away matches.
This year will mark the third time the CPL officially recognizes a regular season winner, after Commissioner Mark Noonan instituted the honour in 2022. The league officially unveiled the Canadian Premier League Shield, the trophy awarded to the best team over its 28-game season, last fall, and will hand out the hardware for the second time in 2024.
The top five teams at the end of the regular season will advance to the 2024 CPL Playoffs, where they will compete in the same electric postseason format introduced and contested by the league in 2023. The five-team format puts added emphasis on the regular season standings and gives an advantage to the teams that perform best over the 28-game schedule.
