CPL Manager of the Month for May 2023

After his side went undefeated in Canadian Premier League action in May, Pacific FC’s James Merriman has been named the league’s Manager of the Month.

Pacific began May by becoming the first side in league history to win back-to-back matches by a score of 4-1. They also earned 1-1 draws against Valour and Halifax. The Tridents finished the month with 8 points, and 10 goals scored with only four conceded.
