The CJFL is proud to announce that on Thursday January 15, 2026, players and teams can offer “Letters of Intent" to start building their 2026 rosters.
As of this date, each CJFL team is allowed to have a maximum of 10 players sign a Letter of Intent (LOI). This doesn't mean the player will appear on the team's active roster for the upcoming season, however it shows both parties commitment to each other.
Once teams have exhausted their 10 letters they will need to wait until the CJFL National Signing Day on June 1, 2026 to fully sign a player.
Teams are still allowed to receive a verbal commitment from a player prior to June 1, however this verbal commitment does not bind the player to the team nor the team to the player.
Each of the three CJFL Conferences are currently working on their 2026 schedules which should be released just before spring.
