Cape Coral, April 30, 2020
The Women's Premier Soccer League (WPSL) officially canceled the 2020 season today due to the implications of the COVID-19 virus.
The WPSL made the cancellation to protect the health of its clubs’ players, staff and supporters during the ongoing pandemic. In late March, the WPSL initially delayed the start of the regular season back to May 29 and canceled the playoffs to allow the completion of the scheduled regular season. “We went through all scenarios possible in order to get our players on the field this summer and complete a national season,” WPSL President Sean Jones said. “However, it became apparent that to play matches in certain areas of the country in June and July would be irresponsible and a potential health risk.”
Although FGCDL FC is very disappointed not having any games this year we fully understand and support the decision made by the WPSL. We like to thank all the people that have been working so hard the whole year to have another successful season and look forward to play again next year.
