Coast To Coast FC

26/09/2023

Hello and Welcome back to Coast to Coast FC! The Canadian soccer podcast focused on all things CPL, Canadian Championship and more!

The boys are finally BACK from their month-long break, and itchin to dig into to all the CanPL action that has transpired while they were away. That's why they're giving you an extra special 2+ hours mega-recap episode! They delve into the newly-crowned champs Cavalry and their charge to glory, the fight between Forge FC and Pacific for that coveted 2nd place, who will miss out between Halifax, Ottawa and York, and what the future might look like for already-eliminated Valour and Vancouver FC.

Hello and Welcome back to Coast to Coast FC, the new Canadian soccer podcast focused on all things Canadian Premier League, Canadian Championship, and more!

Today Felipe is joined by Carlos Benites from Pelota de Maple, looking ahead to this HUGE weekend of CPL action. They dive into what to expect from the top-of-the-table clash between Pacific and Cavarly, if Ottawa can make it 10 games unbeaten at home versus a perhaps stalling Forge, how HFX can keep their momentum against a stubborn Valour side, and if Vancouver can start their miracle run against York United.

Hello!

Introducing myself, Felipe Vallejo, and Mike Rice, two football journalists who have a passion for watching and discussing Canadian Soccer! A little while ago I saw a post that said there wasn't enough content on the CPL, so Mike and I decided to create a new soccer podcast focused on all things Canadian Premier League and Canadian Championship!

We go through each of the weeks' games and break 'em down, discussing all the facts, stats, and moments of every game (and even some press-conference teasers!). We also try to get guests on like Matteo Polisi of TSS Rovers, Anthony Novak of Valour, and soon coaches like James Merriman and Patrice Gheisar!

Make sure to follow us on Twitter and on Spotify, Google and Apple Podcasts as well! And let us know if there is anyone you want us to talk to!
