While everyone has play-offs Jays fever, let’s not forget about Toronto’s football (soccer) club! Last weekend, I took my son and his best friend to see a Toronto FC game. It was the first time seeing a soccer game for my son and I, so we were in for a treat.

Not only did we have a chance to watch our first soccer game together, we also were able to see the players up close and personal! The boys were thrilled to cheer on the soccer club as they went for warm-up, and later high-five them once they finished.

What's Happening: Toronto FC

We had a lovely surprise meet and greet with Canadian soccer star Dwayne De Rosario, the Toronto-area native who retired earlier this year. He graciously signed autographs and took photos with this lucky group of kids… and big kids too!
