2026 CFC Prospect Game on TSN heading back to Hamilton (ROSTER RELEASE)

TORONTO (April 28, 2026) – Canadafootballchat.com (CFC) and The Sports Network (TSN) are ready to bring the top high school football talent in Canada to the national stage for the 2026 CFC Prospect Game.

The sixth edition will be the first ever night game where 73 of the top Canadian high school football prospects will suit up at Hamilton Stadium on May 23rd at 8:00pm EST.

“Our first game in Hamilton (2025) was the best one yet; the competition, atmosphere and broadcast were outstanding. We anticipate the move to a night game this year will make it even better. Hamilton was a great host in 2025, and we are thankful for their commitment to helping foster a long term successful event and partnership.” said Lee Barette, Founder of CanadaFootballChat.com – CFC Prospect Game.

“While excited for this year’s game, we are equally excited for the alumni who will be called during the CFL draft show. Our alumni’s continued engagement has been awesome, many coaching at our nation-wide selection camps,” said Barette.

The selection process included a cross-country tour visiting nine cities featuring a professional combine setting including 40 yard dash, shuttle, vertical and broad jump events.

CFL on TSN analyst Duane Forde added that these rosters represent a glimpse into the future for the most passionate Canadian football fans.

“The CFC Prospects Game is a unique opportunity for top high school players from across Canada to meet and compete against the cream of the crop from other provinces. With instruction provided by some of Canada’s finest university coaches, this event has proven to be a springboard to success at the post secondary and even pro level. For followers of Canadian football, the game represents a rare sneak preview of the next Akheem Mesidor, Nathan Rourke, Chase Brown, or Brady Oliveira before they become household names. It’s a must see matchup for Canada’s most hardcore fans.”

The 2025 CFL Draft was a milestone event with DL Ty Anderson (Hamilton Tiger-Cats), WR Kolby Hurford (Edmonton Elks), DL Max von Muehldorfer (Calgary Stampeders) and OL Ethan Pyle (Toronto Argonauts) making history as the first CFC Prospect Game alumni to be selected. 

Heading into the 2026 CFL Draft, five CFC Prospect Game alumni were featured in the CFL Scouting Bureau’s top 20 final rankings including Albert Reese IV (Mississippi State), DB Malcolm Bell (Michigan State), OL Giordano Vaccaro (Purdue), DL Aamarii Notice (Coastal Carolina), and WR Nolan Ulm (Eastern Washington).
