U of Guelph selected as temp home for Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2013
TORONTO – The Hamilton Tiger-Cats will play CFL home games next season at the University of Guelph.
Team president Scott Mitchell says the facility is a good fit and will be large enough to accommodate all Ticats’ season ticket holders.
It currently seats 7,500 but he says the team and university are discussing ways to expand seating.
A new 24,000-seat field is being built on the site of the old Ivor Wynne Stadium that was the team’s home for 84 years.
Mitchell says they’re confident the new facility will be ready on time.
It will also be used as the soccer venue for the 2015 Pan-American games.
