While the women’s squad has only seven home games this season, the men have nine, with four games dated before UBC Okanagan classes even begin.
With the home-opener Aug. 23, the Heat will look to find the best results possible as the team has a history of performing best while playing on home turf.
The men have missed the post-season for the past two years, and look to rectify the drought with a favourable home schedule this season.
In just 7⃣1⃣ days the @UBCOHeat M⚽️ team will be back on the field in @CanadaWest action.
