The Ontario Football Alliance is working closely with Football Canada regarding the 2020 National events. In the present situation with the uncertainty on when sport can return to normal participation, the Ontario Football Alliance team is working diligently on re-booking the Red vs Black Weekend at a later date. We will be working with the coaching staff to determine the details of that weekend but cannot confirm anything at this time.
The Ontario Football Alliance is currently working on a U14 Community Sport Online Coach Training pilot program that is set to run April 1st. If you are interested in taking part, please contact Adam Ziegler at nccp ontariofootball.ca. We hope to have more information out about future online trainings later next week.
The health and well-being of our football community is our absolute top priority. We ask that you have faith in our decision on this matter and that the Ontario Football Alliance and Football Canada have your best interests in play.
