The Central Blues are excited to welcome Harmon's as our Official Post-Match Bevvie Partner for the 2026 season! Founded in 2021 by industry veterans Steve Abrams and Rob Doyle, Harmon's is an Ontario-based brewery on a mission to craft delicious non-alcoholic beer that truly tastes like the real thing. Whether you're cooling down after the match or catching up with teammates, Harmon's helps keep the post-game tradition alive with its award-winning core range: Lunchbox Lager, Jack Pine Pale Ale, Half-Day Hazy IPA, and Tresette Italian Pilsner, alongside a rotating selection of seasonal brews.

Halfway through the season, we're proud to be delivering on the vision we outlined in our preseason report. Record-breaking Team Canada representation, continued player development, and an increasingly competitive squad have made the first half of 2026 one of the strongest periods of growth in our Women's+ program.

As we head into our 20th anniversary season, this preseason has been about one thing: rebuilding.

Located just around the corner from our training venue, Nice Slice is a local pizzeria that has quickly become a favourite within the community. Owned by Nick White, it has built a strong reputation for carefully crafted slices, including standout favourites like vodka pepperoni and za’atar pie, all served in a relaxed, neighbourhood setting.

The Central Blues are thrilled to welcome Freya Athletic Therapy as a Platinum-level sponsor. Based at College and Dovercourt, Freya Jones-Eriksson offers individualized, active, and holistic rehabilitation for people of all backgrounds, with a strong focus on supporting queer, 2SLGBTQIA+, and allied communities.

Lock it in! The AFL Ontario season calendar is officially here, and this yearis extra special as we celebrate our twentieth anniversary season. It’s shaping up to be one of our biggest and most exciting years yet. Even better, weekly training is moving to Thursday evenings, giving you the perfect midweek boost of footy, fitness, and fun.

The Central Blues are excited to announce that Something in the Water Brewing Co. (SITW), Brewers Choice 2022 Canada’s New Brewery of the Year, has joined the club as a Gold Tier sponsor. Located in the heart of Liberty Village, SITW was the perfect venue to host our 2025 awards night.

As preseason gets underway, the Blues took one last look back at the memorable 2025 season during the club’s annual Awards Night. Hosted by our new 2026 sponsor, Something in the Water Brewing Co., the evening celebrated contribution, improvement, and performance across the season.

The 2025 season marked an important step forward for the Blues. After a challenging period, the club responded with renewed commitment, steady improvement, and a strong belief in what we’re building together—belief in the club, in our teammates, and in the process resulting in a preliminary final appearance.
