The reigning Prairie Football Conference Champion Regina Thunder will return to Liebel Field on Sunday afternoon. After opening the season with a pair of road wins, the Thunder will honour Indigenous heritage throughout the contest.

As summer winds down, the fields of Saskatchewan come alive again with the sights and sounds of football.

The University of Regina Rams opened their preseason with a dramatic 31-28 win over the Manitoba Bisons in Winnipeg.

Football has long been known as a game of inches. In week 11 of the Canadian Football League season, the Saskatchewan Roughriders showed that it can also be a game of seconds.

Two weeks are in the books for the Prairie Football Conference regular season.

Due to severe weather conditions on Wednesday night, the University of Saskatchewan’s preseason game against the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds had to be stopped.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed National kicker Campbell Fair. Fair joins the Green and White as a free agent after attending the Edmonton Elks training camp this spring.

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed American defensive back Benny Sapp III. Sapp III had joined the Atlanta Falcons practice squad in 2024 after entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent when he signed with the Green Bay Packers in 2023.

Reigning Prairie Football Conference offensive player of the week, Peter Boersch, had another dominant day. Regina’s running back ran for 219 yards on 29 carries and a touchdown in the Thunder’s 46-21 win in Calgary yesterday.

The defending PFC champion Regina Thunder will continue their tour of Alberta this weekend, stopping in Calgary on Sunday to play the Colts.
