    Alyssa Mitchell talks about becoming majority owner of Calgary Wild FC

    We interview new Wild majority owner Alyssa Mitchell about her background, what led to her decision to purchase the club and her vision of the team going forward. There are two pro matches in Calgary on Sunday afternoon.  Cavalry FC plays Pacific FC at Spruce Meadows.  Pacific just fired their coach in the hopes of getting them out of the tailspin they've been in all season.  The Wild will play Halifax at McWoman Stadium.  Calgary had a lot of success vs the Tides last year and 3 points could vault them into 3rd place. We also review Tuesday's Alberta Premier League matches and preview the Friday night slate.  And we also discuss the state of the natural grass fields in the city, in particular the ones managed by the City of Calgary.

    We review matches that happened over the past weekend including: Cavalry FC made their first visit to Montreal to play Supra and grabbed all three points, thanks to a late penalty by Tobias Warschewski.

They lost 5-2 in a match where both sides had a lot of goal scoring opportunities. After two matches, we are noticing some concerning trends, particularly at the back.
