The Canadian Football League (CFL) has launched a redesigned gaming platform centred on a more cohesive and entertaining fan experience across its many offerings. 

Originally introduced in 2022, CFL Game Zone is the central hub for the league's passionate fans to engage with exclusive products and contests to celebrate and enhance their fandom. 

The partnership between Genius Sports and CFL Game Zone has enabled the league to develop a range of interactive experiences, opening the door for fans to connect more closely with the game they love. 

“For our incredible CFL faithful and any fans just being introduced to our game, the new and improved CFL Game Zone represents the future of CFL fandom,” said Tyler Mazereeuw, Chief Commercial Officer.

“At the heart of being a fan is connection: the desire to interact with like-minded others; the feeling of belonging to something bigger; the push to compare and proudly show off that fandom. That need to connect and compete drives CFL Game Zone, and it continues to guide how we, as a league, engage with our fans.”

The new CFL Game Zone launches with two offerings – CFL Preseason Futures and CFL Team Picker. Additional games and interactive experiences will be launched soon.

CFL Preseason Futures

Fans can make several one-time predictions prior to season kick-off on Thursday, June 8, and then follow along to see what the upcoming season brings. Fans will be ranked by performance and all perfect predictions will earn entries for prize draws.

CFL Team Picker
​Which team is for you? How do you match-up with the personalities of the nine CFL clubs?

Fans who solely back Canadian football can find a team to call their own. Seasoned die-hards can definitively know who they’re rooting for and then display their team colours, knowing they’re wearing their hearts on their sleeves.
