WCL Unveils 2021 Schedule
November 19, 2020 - West Coast League (WCL) News Release
Today the West Coast League released its official 2021 schedule, as announced by Commissioner Rob Neyer.
"Every year," said Neyer, "getting the new West Coast League schedule is like getting an early Christmas present. The best early Christmas present."
Opening Day 2021 is set for Tuesday, June 1. All fifteen WCL teams will have started their 54-game league schedules by June 4, with the regular season slated to finish on Thursday, August 12.
The 2021 WCL campaign will feature three expansion teams, as the Nanaimo NightOwls, Kamloops NorthPaws, and Edmonton Riverhawks have all joined the league and will play their inaugural WCL contests next June.
"Now we get to spend the rest of the winter," Neyer said, "thinking about all these great matchups and road trips, and this time we've got the added thrill of not one, not two, but three new teams. I can't wait to visit Nanaimo, Kamloops, and Edmonton next summer!"
Most West Coast League teams will supplement their league schedules with additional non-league games that won't count in the standings, and will appear on the individual teams' schedules. So stay tuned for those, plus exciting news about the 2021 playoffs!
