"This will be a good test for our Canada Games squad," said Bryan Rosenfeld, Ontario Soccer Manager of High Performance.

"With some of our players already in League1 Ontario for club competition, there will be some familiar faces on either side of the pitch and we expect to see a lot out of both squads."
