Amazing the support it received during the inaugural season and they are already making some huge moves to keep growing.

There were seven teams up until this week when the newest club Atletico Ottawa was announced. The name originally seemed really dumb but the club is actually owned by Atlético Madrid which I think is huge for the league.

Big moves being made for the sport in Canada and I'm very pleased to see it

Also, Go Wanderers!
