The final whistle in the third instalment of the SK Summer Soccer Series not only signalled a victory for the host Selects, who won the contest 2-0, but also a huge win for Saskatchewan’s soccer community.
“It was so fun to play with [the fans] singing and chanting,” said Selects forward James Fraser. “It wasn’t just one group, it was the whole crowd out there.”
The three-game series, which had matches in May, July and August, provided a preview of what the landscape could look like for a potential Canadian Premier League team in Saskatoon.
“It shows Saskatoon that we’re ready for pro soccer here,” Selects director of soccer operations Bryce Chapman said.
