Match-ups for the 2019 Canadian Championship will be announced on Tuesday, February 12 following a draw to determine the competition schedule. The competition will feature 24 games over five rounds including three qualifying rounds, the semifinal, and final.

The draw will determine the qualifying round 1 match-ups for teams entering that round on May 15 and 22, as well as the subsequent round match-ups to produce the pathway to the Canadian Championship final found scheduled for September 18 and 25.

“The continued expansion of the Canadian Championship is a testament to the growth and professionalization of the sport of soccer in our country,” said Canada Soccer general secretary Peter Montopoli.
