ABBOTSFORD, British Columbia — The University of the Fraser Valley soccer teams unveiled their Canada West regular-season schedules, as part of the conference’s larger schedule release.

For the UFV men’s and women’s soccer teams, the 2022 CW campaign marks a return to interprovincial competition in the regular season for the first time since 2019. The 2020 season was canceled due to COVID-19, and the 2021 schedule saw the Cascades compete strictly within B.C. during the regular season, with interprovincial crossover not beginning until the playoffs.

The Cascades women’s soccer team launches its conference slate in late August as they host the UBC Thunderbirds (Friday, Aug. 26, 7 p.m.) and Victoria Vikes (Saturday, Aug. 27, 5:30 p.m.) at Rotary Stadium.

The UFV men’s soccer squad kicks off its campaign the following weekend, hosting the Thompson Rivers WolfPack (Friday, Sept. 2, 7 p.m.) and the UBC Okanagan Heat (Sunday, Sept. 4, 1 p.m.) at Rotary Stadium.

The schedule continues through Fall. See the full men’s soccer schedule a . Some of the upcoming details to look forward to being:
