Kevin Blue has hit the ground running as general secretary and CEO of Canada Soccer.
The former Golf Canada executive, who did not wait until Thursday's official start date to get stuck in, has already flown to see the Canadian women's team in action at the CONCACAF W Gold Cup in San Diego, issued a number of statements and communicated with close to 200 interested parties.
The 50th-ranked Canadian men face No. 96 Trinidad and Tobago in a March 23 playoff in Frisco, Texas, with the winner slotting into Group A with top-ranked Argentina, No. 33 Peru and No. 42 Chile at this summer's Copa America. The ninth-ranked Canadian women, meanwhile, look to open defence of their Olympic title come late July in Paris.
" heartbreaking, wet. But nonetheless, it was good to be there to support the team," he said."Obviously we were all hoping for a different outcome of what was certainly an eventful game."
