A good dose of sunshine can work wonders on a troubled past.

Take the Warriors. While past season’s haven’t exactly been the prettiest, the girls are banking on a 2024 summer renaissance. They’ve just managed to go undefeated in their two pre-season encounters. It’s just a start. But we’d expect Jennyka Dube and Vanessa Astrologo to be key components in any serious Warrior push to pacify FC3 rivals FC Diamonds, Hot Shots and Fireball.

Oh, and for those looking to bet big on a clean slate, look no further than Al Dente. Plenty of firepower. And plenty to shoot at in Laval’s B5 Division.

A SNEAK PEEK AT WEEK 1

Boozy Bunch get the party started Sunday at sundown against winter heavyweights Gladiators FC. Then, on Monday, the Young Boys have a championship to defend as they take on FC Dnipro in B2 Division action.
