IT'S PLAYOFF TIME IN THE CPSL
TORONTO�Friday, October 1--The playoffs leading to the championship of Canada�s only complete professional soccer league will get underway on Sunday, October 3 following the final game of an almost 5-month-long regular league campaign that ended on Thursday.
Toronto Supra won the Eastern Conference title of the Canadian Professional Soccer League and for the second year in succession, Hamilton Thunder won in the west.
These two teams will advance to the semi-finals being played on October 9 and the championship final will be played two days later on Thanksgiving Day, Monday, October 11.
But first there are two quarter-final games, followed by a wild card game that becomes necessary to provide a second opportunity for the host team, Brampton Hitmen, to win the title.
