In advance of the new team launch, Bob Young, the Ticats and the Hamilton & District Soccer Association have launched a survey to find out more about you – the Hamilton soccer fan.

The survey, launched last weekend is to gain perspective of the local supporter and how the new franchise will be supported. Take the short survey before August 15th and be entered in a draw to win a Canadian soccer prize pack including a jersey, scarf and game ball.

In a very special episode of Ours is the Fury, James Hutton of the Battalion and Ryan Shannon of Ottawa’s Stoney Monday Riot speculate on all things Canadian Premier League. A must listen to show to get the CanPL conversation going.
