Report: Canadian Premier League Making Progress, Targeting 2018 Kickoff

A few more details have emerged about a Canadian professional league, including the fact that it is moving forward, albeit slower than expected.

The Canadian Premier League is targeting a 2018 kickoff after completing its first phase of development, according to a report.

The report comes from a tweet by Anthony Totera of Red Card Radio. It has since been confirmed by Duane Rollins of Canadian Soccer News, the journalist who initially reported the fact that a Canadian league was in development.

While details about the proposed new Canadian professional soccer league have always been few and far between, their release came to a full standstill this past summer.
