The Club's revenues grew to $44.7 million, with gate receipts increasing to $14.5 million.

The championship season drove significant demand for merchandise, resulting in very strong revenues of $9.1 million, the highest sales in over a decade.

Football Operations

Following a 12-6, first-place finish, the Roughriders captured the ultimate prize, winning the Grey Cup Championship. Quarterback Trevor Harris was named Grey Cup MVP, while receiver Samuel Emilus earned Most Valuable Canadian honours.

Reavis; receiver KeeSean Johnson; defensive tackle Micah Johnson; cornerback Tevaughn Campbell; and halfback Rolan Milligan Jr.

Head Coach Corey Mace was named Coach of the Year, Hardrick was recognized as the league's Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman, and Jeremy O'Day and the Football Operations department received the inaugural Ted Goveia Award.

Community Outreach

In an effort to share the Grey Cup Championship with as many members of Rider Nation as possible, the Club embarked on an ambitious Grey Cup Community Tour spanning two months and 38 Saskatchewan communities.

He follows Jorgen Hus (2024), Brayden Lenius (2023), and Dan Clark (2022). In total, the Roughriders have received the award six times since its inception in 2010.

Rider Nation's strong support of the Saskatchewan Roughrider Foundation 50/50 raised a record-breaking $3.3 million, with proceeds supporting amateur football across the province.
