On Sunday, two Toronto FC Academy teams will be in action up at the Kia Training Ground in Downsview Park.
The U-14s face North Toronto Nitros at 1:30 pm and the U-15s will play Burlington YSC at 3:30 pm; both are playing competition a year up. Both matches are semifinals of the ODPL Charity Shield and are open to the public – they will be played inside the dome at the KTG.
With the first team set to open the playoffs on Monday against the New York Red Bulls, there is no better way to get into the spirit of the action than seeing the next generation in similarly important competition.
