Winning starts to the new season

April 21, 2025

SFC men’s and women’s teams both secured victories in the opening week of the 2025 League1 Ontario regular season.

SFC men beat rivals


Scrosoppi saw off Simcoe County Rovers 1-0 in the opening game of the 2025 Men’s Premier Division, starting their title defence with a victory against tough opposition. 


The two sides could not be separated at half-time, and SFC came closest to breaking the deadlock after the restart when substitute Noah Dedomincis hit the inside of the post.


It was Omari Cotterell who found the back of the net for SFC just moments later. The forward was in the right place and the right time to tap home a dangerous cross, giving his side the lead with 20 minutes to go.


Scrosoppi then held onto the victory and clean sheet to kickstart their season with three points.


Convincing win for SFC women


Scrosoppi are top of the Women’s Championship after their convincing 3-0 win against Rush Canada in the regular season’s opening weekend.


The first-half was a similar story to the men’s game – few chances as both teams settled into the new campaign. But the second period was much more clinical from the hosts.


Emily Dinatale opened the scoring just after the hour-mark with a powerful header from a corner kick, and Natalie Moynihan doubled the lead minutes later with a penalty.


Returning striker Aalayah Lully then got back among the goals by scoring her first of the campaign and Scrosoppi’s third to put the icing on the cake in her team’s divisional opener.


Coming up


The Men’s Premier team is back in action on Tuesday for a midweek match against Sigma, and another win would put them in a commanding position ahead of the weekend when the rest of the division take to the field.


The Women’s Championship team are back in action on Sunday when they visit Oakville, who narrowly lost in the opening week.


Here’s another reminder that Scrosoppi’s two League2 sides are kicking off their campaigns this week. The women’s squad are in action on Monday, April 21, with the men beginning their regular season a day later on Tuesday; the teams are taking on Simcoe County Rovers and North Mississauga respectively.
