GUELPH, Ont. – For a fourth consecutive season, the Toronto Argonauts will call the University of Guelph home for training camp as well as a preseason matchup. On Friday, May 31, 2024, the University of Guelph's Alumni Stadium will once again serve as the host venue for a CFL preseason matchup as the Toronto Argonauts host the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Kickoff is set for 7pm with tickets now on sale to the general public at
gryphons.ca/tickets.
In addition to hosting the May 31 preseason game, the University of Guelph's Alumni Stadium will also serve as the home of the Toronto Argonauts for the team's 2024 training camp, which runs from the middle of May until the team's final preseason game on May 31. The Argos have now held their training camp at the University of Guelph on five separate occasions within the past nine years (2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 & 2016).
"It is always a privilege to be able to welcome the Argos to our U of G campus," says Scott McRoberts, Director of Athletics at the University of Guelph. "We are proud of the work that has been done during our ongoing partnership with the Argos and look forward to continuing to build on that in the future. And of course, we cannot wait for the game on May 31, as our local Guelph community, as well as Argos and Ticats fans, once again get the opportunity to watch CFL action at one of the best collegiate facilities in the country."
