There's a new Head Coach in town. 

His name is Benjamín Mora. And his mission is to bring silverware to The Nine Stripes. 

He's done it plenty of times already in an extremely impressive career, racking up nine titles during his stint in Malaysia.  His success with Johor Darul Ta'zim led to his return to native Mexico and a high-profile job with Atlas in Liga MX.

He brings a big reputation to the club and he was officially unveiled earlier this week. The entire episode is dedicated to Mora's arrival: we bring you inside his first press conference, while Eoin O'Callaghan sits down with him to understand more about his process, his journey and his first impressions of the squad. 

We also look ahead to a big day on Sunday, June 9th. As well as being Mora's first game as Head Coach, it's also the club's Pride Match. We have a special pre-game Pride Panel Discussion at 4pm at York Lions Stadium on the theme of 'Sport and Sexuality in 2024', hosted/moderated by Devin Heroux from CBC Sports and featuring Adriana Cavarra, GM of Peaches Sports Bar in downtown Toronto and Robyn Pearson, Social Media Manager with The GIST.  There are limited tickets for this event, but the ticket gets you access to our Pride Match afterwards and also carries an in-built $10 donation to Rainbow Railroad, an incredible non-profit that's doing come crucial work in the 2SLGBTQ+ community.  

We've got 10 tickets to giveaway. Simply email [email protected] to grab yours!
