Kamloops United FC returns home Friday night for it's BCPL home opener, hosting Altitude FC at Hillside Stadium on April 24.
After opening the season with three straight road matches, KUFC’s men’s side enters the weekend at 0–3 and searching for its first points of the campaign. The early schedule hasn’t been favourable, but the home opener presents a reset opportunity against an Altitude side that has only played twice so far this season.
Altitude’s men sit at 1–1 through two matches, currently positioned mid-table. With fewer games played, they come in with a slight advantage in rest, but less match rhythm compared to a KUFC side that has already faced three consecutive tests away from home.
On the women’s side, KUFC returns home with momentum. The squad picked up a key win last weekend in Nanaimo, securing its first three points of the season. That result also carries added importance beyond league play, keeping KUFC in contention heading into the second leg of the Reid Davidson Charity Shield, which will be decided later this season in Kamloops.
Altitude’s women have also had a steady start, collecting four points from their opening two matches. Both sides will be looking to build early consistency as the BCPL season begins to take shape.
Friday marks the first chance for Kamloops supporters to see both squads at home this season, with KUFC aiming to establish form at Hillside Stadium after a road-heavy opening stretch.
The Women's Match kicks off at 5:00 PM and the Men's Match is set for 7:30PM.
