"Hoo" are the Vermont Wild?
Cavalry FC and the Calgary Wild continue their preparations for the 2026 season. The Cavs signed a couple more players in Nathaniel Edwards and Curtis Ofori. We talk about how they fit into the club. Can Edwards perhaps be Fraser Aird's replacement?
Meanwhile, the Calgary Wild announced the signing of GK Molly Race and they have a couple more signed players that haven't been announced yet. That would mean they have 23 of 25 roster spots filled. We talk about what types of players they should be looking for to fill those final spots.
We also chat about the Vermont Wild, who are a newly announced team in the WPSL, which is a women's amateur league in the United States. Their logo and use of an owl seems very similar to the Calgary Wild. Are they an affiliated club? Or should we expect some Calgary intellectual property lawyers to start making some calls to Vermont?
The Calgary Minor Soccer Association is holding their massive Family Day weekend tournament and this year it's bigger than ever. We talk about the huge scope of this event with 320 teams playing over 530 matches on the long weekend.
We also provide some updates about Calgarians playing soccer around the world such as Sebastian Dzikowski, Elijah Adekugbe, Charles Nana, Willie Akio and Adam Huskic.
