While I’m not crazy about the new CPL logo, I do really like the League1 rebrands being in tune with the CPL.
Great colour schemes and the North Star becoming an arrow up is a very smart move.

THE NEW CPL LOGO IS HERE‼️
A big refresh ahead of season 8, with a very clean, Canadian red-and-white look.
I’m happy they’ve stuck with the North Star/maple leaf symbol, and didn’t change it too much.
What do you think of the new logo?

FRANK STURING IS STAYING IN TORONTO!
The Dutch defender re-ups through 2026 for a third year at Inter.
One of the best ballplaying CBs in the CPL imo. Fantastic defender.

🐎🚨 AMER DIDIC SIGNS FOR CAVALRY!!
Another HUGE domino of the offseason falls. Arguably the CPL’s most storied defender is heading home to Alberta on a 2+1 deal.
Didic was injured most of 2025 - no doubt he’ll be hungry to bounce back.
