Forge FC was announced as the newest club in the Canadian Premier League last night. The club’s badge was unveiled along with the club colours of spark orange, platinum steel, and waterfall white. A secondary badge that features a hammer and six stripes representing the six communities of Hamilton was also unveiled. Based in Hamilton, the new club becomes the sixth member of the CanPL.

Fans of soccer in Hamilton have been waiting for this moment. Barton Street Battalion, a group of Hamilton soccer fanatics, showed up and brought the noise for the most exciting night in the group’s history. Next year, the Barton Street Battalion will call Tim Hortons Field their home for every game. The stadium will be shared with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League. Capacity will be reduced from 23,218 to 14,000 to make for an intimidating atmosphere. Tickets will start as low as $10 per game and fans will have the chance to purchase tickets in the fall.
