All six PFC teams open the schedule on August 10th
The CJFL and Prairie Conference (PFC) are pleased to release their 2025 schedule that will see the six-member Conference open the CJFL season on Sunday August 10, 2025 with a full slate of games.
With the CJFL Canadian Bowl scheduled to be played in the Prairies this November, stakes are even higher for all six teams coming into the new campaign.
The defending Conference champion Regina Thunder will open up their quest for another title on the road when they visit the Edmonton Huskies. The Saskatoon Hilltops also kickoff on the road when they travel to Winnipeg to meet the Rifles and the Calgary Colts entertain the Edmonton Wildcats in Week 1.
Each team will play an eight-game regular season schedule concluding on Thanksgiving Sunday, October 12th. The top four teams will then advance to the Canadian Bowl Playoffs which will begin the following weekend with a pair of semi-finals before the PFC title game on October 26th. The winner of that game will host the 2025 Canadian Bowl national championship.
Their opponent will be the winner of the CJFL National Semi-Final game between the BC Conference and Ontario Conference champions. That game will also be held on October 26th in British Columbia for the first time since the 2021 season.
The BC and Ontario Conferences continue to work on their schedules and do anticipate releasing them in the coming weeks.
