argos (Rowen Fisler\/CTV News) <\/p>\nFor a sixth straight season, the Argos are setting up shop at the University of Guelph. <\/p>\n
The Toronto Argonauts returned to the University of Guelph for training camp for a sixth straight season, but this year\u2019s stay will be much longer than usual.<\/p>\n
The Canadian Football League (CFL) club announced the university will serve as the team\u2019s headquarters from May 1 through Aug. 4 as the 2026 season gets underway during a unique year for Canadian sports venues. With 2026 FIFA World Cup matches being hosted at BMO Field, the Argonauts will begin the regular season with seven straight road games.<\/p>\n
Three of those \u201chome\u201d games are scheduled to be played in Saskatchewan, Winnipeg and Hamilton while the team remains based in Guelph.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought it was a good start. As I told the club, we\u2019re going to be easy to please but we\u2019re going to be hard to satisfy,\u201d head coach Mike Miller said. \u201cThey accepted the challenge, and they came out here with that type of focus and urgency and they executed. So, [I\u2019m] proud of how we started, but again, tomorrow\u2019s the next day and we\u2019re only as good as the next day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have great leadership. We got a lot of young guys that have a lot of passion and a lot of energy, a lot of talent as well,\u201d defensive back DaShaun Amos said. \u201cWe\u2019re a well-rounded football team that\u2019s going to be disciplined and we\u2019re going to play smart football.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amos returned to the team after playing for the Hamilton Tiger Cats last year.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s just been confirmation for me, the three years prior to this [return], was exactly what I said it was, and it was the highlight of my career,\u201d Amos said. \u201cBeing able to come back and put the double blue back on, it\u2019s an honour.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Argonauts will also host a preseason matchup against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Alumni Stadium on May 29 at 7 p.m. Gates open at 6 p.m.<\/p>\n
The team has previously held training camp at the University of Guelph in 2016 and every year since 2021.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were able to see guys celebrating each other. Whether it was [the] offense making plays, [the] defense making plays\u2026there was a lot of togetherness out there, so I was really excited to see that,\u201d linebacker Adarius Pickett said. \u201cLet\u2019s get the party started, baby. We back. I\u2019m back. It\u2019s time, right now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tickets for the preseason game are available through the university\u2019s athletics department.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For a sixth straight season, the Argos are setting up shop at the University of Guelph.
