CAP WILL BE JUMPIN’ IN JUNE

SUMMER NIGHT VS WHITECAPS

Unity FC will host two midweek night matches at Cloverdale Athletic Park this season. The second of which is against Whitecaps FC on Wednesday, June 26 (Women: 6pm; Men: 8:15pm).

 

This fixture comes nearly two months after these two clubs lifted the curtain on the 2024 regular season on April 28. Given the competitiveness of last year's matches between these two foes, this midweek battle could be an early tone setter for League1 BC playoffs at the end of July.

 

NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK

Unity FC will face 2024 expansion side Burnaby FC twice during the regular season. The first-ever meeting between the two sides will happen in the second week of the regular season at Burnaby Lakes West #5. 

 

Burnaby FC will make the return trip to Cloverdale Athletic Park on Wednesday, June 19 (Women: 6pm; Men: 8:15pm). 

 

These fixtures provide an immediate added layer of fan intrigue and excitement as both clubs are powered by strong BCSPL alliances in Surrey United vs Burnaby FC.
