Welcome to the 5th season of the Okanagan Premier League. We are looking forward to getting going this season in this league’s first milestone year. Because of the time it is taking for our partners, Kelowna United and the community, to put up the Rutland Dome, the league is starting slightly later this season. Our original start date was October 15th, but we have tentatively moved it to the 22nd due to enhanced work that needs to go on inside the domes to get them up to standard. This will not affect the length of the OPL season, however, it may end up shortening the winter break by one week in January. Stay updated as we continue to provide information for the start of the season, or please reach out to your managers who are in the loop.
All three teams are back from last season to defend their Championship title. Welcome to Grenfell United, Okanagan F.C. 2007b, Canco’s APNA, African Giants and Acera F.C. into the league this season for the first time. We are proud to welcome JVLX F.C. back into the league.
Each match has a 1-hour time slot in the Okanagan Premier League. Please ensure that your team arrives well on time and that the match is ready to go by your team’s scheduled fixture. The Rutland Dome features a warm-up area behind the pitch that players and teams can use for dynamic warm-ups, rondos, passing and mobility exercises before the match.
We're looking forward to having everyone back for this upcoming season.
