Ottawa Invaders 2014 schedule

Revealed earlier today (but, as usual, subject to change):


The Northern Football Conference appears to be featuring two 5-team divisions this year.  The Invaders are in the East, sharing it with the two Toronto teams (Raiders and Titans), the defending champion Montreal Transit and the Oakville Longhorns.

For those unfamiliar with the club, this will be their 5th year of operation.  They were coached by former Ottawa Rough Rider Ken Evraire during the first three, achieving a 14-9-1 regular season record and reaching the championship game in both 2011 and 2012.  Wayne Jacobs took over for the 2013 season and led the team to a 6-2 record.

The team played at Keith Harris Stadium (Carleton) up until renovations were required for the return of the university's football program.  Games were played at Beckwith last year, but presumably the Invaders will return to Carleton for 2014.

This is a quality club filled with local players who have exhausted their CIS and junior eligibility.  If you have yet to take in a game, do yourself a favour and show up on May 31st.
