TORONTO (October 21, 2025) \u2013 Canadian football\u2019s finest will gather in Winnipeg as the Canadian Football League (CFL) celebrates the best of the 2025 season at the annual CFL Awards on November 13 at the Club Regent Event Centre. Two members of the CFL ON TSN panel will trade-in the studio for the stage to take on hosting duties: returning fan-favourite Kate Beirness will be joined by Canadian Football Hall of Famer and Blue Bomber legend Milt Stegall.<\/p>\n

The Awards will shine a spotlight on the league\u2019s top players with recipients being named George Reed Most Outstanding Player, Most Outstanding Canadian, Most Outstanding Defensive Player, Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman, Most Outstanding Special Teams Player and Most Outstanding Rookie. In addition, the Tom Pate Memorial Award, selected by the CFL Players\u2019 Association, will honour sportsmanship and community contributions, and the Jake Gaudaur Veteran\u2019s Award will be given to the Canadian player who best exemplifies the courage and strength of the nation\u2019s veterans.<\/p>\n

The evening kicks off with the free, 18+ Grey Cup Festival Club Regent Casino Party, where attendees will have the opportunity to meet and get autographs from nominees, players and the legends of the game, in addition to picking up new merchandise at the Grey Cup Festival pop-up shop, snapping a picture with the Grey Cup and watching the red carpet arrivals.
