Cascadia unveils new crest and kit made by international manufacturer, with Prost as shirt sponsor
Team Cascadia are set to play their first ever home game.
So far all their fixtures have taken place in London. After playing in the ConIFA World Cup in 2o18, their next challenge will be on May 25 against the Chagos Islands in Whyteleaf, South London.
However the Cascadian Football federation (CAFF) was always aware that the logistical difficulties to playing at home had to overcome, notably the shortage of opponents in the area.
Now it has organised its first ever home game.
The match will take place at the Frenchfield Stadium in Kent, WA on July 27 and the opponent will be Darfur, a region in western Sudan with a population of just over 9 million. The venue has a capacity of 6000.
Aaron Johnsen, President of CAFF reacted with joy:
“We are very excited to finally be playing a match on home soil. After the WFC and planned game against Chagos, the time has come to give the home fans something. Darfur will be a great opponent, with a great story.
“We couldn’t be happier to be playing them.”
Darfur have competed in the 2012 VIVA World Cup and the 2014 version of the ConIFA World Football Cup where they won the Fair Play award. A documentary called Not Just Football was made about the team
