CFL delays start of 2021 season to Aug. 5
The CFL has delayed the start to the 2021 season.
Commissioner Randy Ambrosie made the announcement on Wednesday morning, ending weeks of speculation regarding if and when the 2021 season would start.
Ambrosie revealed in a media statement that a 14-game regular season is “targeted” to kick off on Aug. 5. The 2021 Grey Cup game, originally slated for Nov. 21 in Hamilton, has been moved to Dec. 12. Training camps are to open in mid-July.
“We will play CFL football in 2021,” Ambrosie said in a prepared statement. “Our revised target date to start our regular season is Aug. 5. To facilitate a 14-game season, for our players, fans and partners, we are re-scheduling the Grey Cup to Dec. 12 in Hamilton.
