Why is this issue worth five dollars of your hard-earned money? From the Canadian Premier League to Toronto FC, there’s lots to read: • Matthew Gourlie looks at how Canadian soccer supporters are embracing the Canadian Premier League, even though the circuit itself has yet to be formally announced; • Can Toronto FC break the longstanding MLS curse — that the losing MLS Cup finalist usually struggles the following season? • We look at Maxim Tissot‘s long courtship with D.C. United, and how it finally paid off; • We ponder why, in the wake of the Women’s World Cup, that female registration numbers in Canada are dropping off; • A look back at the remarkable career of Melissa Tancredi; • The Canadian men’s national team’s first impressions of new coach Octavio Zambrano; • A look at the people behind the new indoor soccer franchise in Toronto, and their hopes to bring an indoor soccer World Cup to Canada in 2020; • A profile of FC Edmonton’s Mauro Eustaquio. Whew! Look for the Plastic Pitch app via iTunes or Google Play, or use the Shopify store to get a digital copy e-mailed to you!
