Vancouver's 2024 season is set to pick up where the squad left off in 2023. In VFC's inaugural season, the Eagles were able to secure at least a point against each CPL opponent and earned the most against Halifax Wanderers FC with seven points in four matches. Vancouver battled all season at the bottom of the table, but a change-in-form after key mid-season additions saw VFC win four of their final six matches and lift the squad into seventh place to close out 2023.
All tickets to VFC's home matches, including season ticket memberships, can be found online here. For more information, please email memberservices@vancouverfc.com.
