For the first time in weeks, we've had a development on pro soccer in
Hamilton.
On the Tim Hortons Field website, a survey has gone up to gauge the
interest in bringing professional soccer back to Hamilton. The survey comes with the following statement:
Bob Young is committed to bringing professional soccer back to the city
of Hamilton, to play at Tim Hortons Field. Tim Hortons Field is a proven
first class soccer facility, and the ideal venue from a fan experience
perspective.
In order to launch a successful soccer club, fan input and engagement is
crucial each step of the way. Help us take the first step.
In cooperation with the Hamilton & District Soccer Association, we want to
hear from you – give us your feedback and help shape the next successful professional soccer club launch in North America.
The survey asks a number of questions with a focus on soccer that's been
played at Tim Hortons Field including the Canadian Women's game against England and the PanAm games.
According to a post on The Voyageurs, the survey has possibly been sent to nearly 25,000 Hamilton-based soccer fans and players.
The survey doesn't hint at the CPL but does indicate there is a strong
interest from Bob Young to bring a pro club to Hamilton.
If you're in the Hamilton area and haven't seen the survey yet here it is.
