The closed meetings will include an address by Kevin Blue, Canada Soccer's chief executive officer and general secretary, as well as a visit to the FIFA's 2026 World Cup office in Toronto on Thursday to get an update on tournament plans.Representatives from the NSL teams will take a break from their agenda Wednesday morning to take part in a separate panel discussion hosted by Sponsorship Marketing Council Canada.
