The Langford-based Pacific FC professional soccer team is pretty stoked about playing in the Final match.
They’re up against Forge FC, on the that team’s home turf in Hamilton at Tim Horton’s Field, this coming Sunday December 5.
The game starts at 1:30 pm Pacific Time (4:30 pm Eastern). See the December 5 lineup here.
The team is for the entire island, said Coach Pa-Modou Kah yesterday. In social media, the hashtag is #ForTheIsle.
Kah’s approach is to set the importance of each player first, as a person, then all of them be a family. He finds that works to bring out the best in everyone.
This year has come on the heels of the ‘bubble’ season played in PEI in 2020. “it’s been a long time waiting for sports” during the pandemic, said Coach Kah back in July.
Forge FC is a tough contender. They captured the Canadian Premier League championship now two years in a row (2019 CPL inaugural year, and 2020).
Pacific FC home games are played at Starlight Stadium in Langford.
