It has won the Canadian Championship five times (2008, 2013, 2014, 2019, 2021) and notably reached the final of the CONCACAF Champions League in 2015, as well as the quarterfinals in 2009 and 2022. CF Montr\u00e9al plays its home matches at Stade Saputo, a soccer-specific stadium with a capacity of 19,619.<\/p>\n<p>In 2010, the organization established the CF Montreal Academy, a soccer player training center with over 100 male and female players. CF Montreal was the first professional club in North America to offer a sports-study program. The club's development structure also includes the U13 and U14 Pre-Academy teams. The Partner Club Network (CIP) and regional programs also allow the club to reach nearly 1,000 additional players aged U8 to U12. The women's program was introduced to the club's Academy on May 31, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Through the Montreal Impact Foundation, which celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2023, CF Montreal is deeply committed to the community. Its mission is to organize and support activities aimed at improving the quality of life for children and families from vulnerable backgrounds. Specifically, it provides sports facilities to promote physical activity and social integration.<\/p>\n<p><b>About the Al\u00e9o Foundation<br \/>\n<\/b>Established in 1985, the Fondation de l\u2019athl\u00e8te d\u2019excellence (FAEQ) has awarded over $20 million in scholarships to nearly 4,000 outstanding student-athletes from across Quebec. With the goal of clarifying the organization's mission to propel athletes beyond sports, in 2022 the FAEQ rebranded and changed its name to Fondation Al\u00e9o. In addition to continuing its provision of scholarships and support services to tomorrow's leaders, it confirms its personalized approach, focusing on the overall well-being and development of its scholarship recipients in their performance.<\/p>\n<p>For more information: <a href=\"https:\/\/fondationaleo.ca\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/fondationaleo.ca\">fondationaleo.ca<\/a> as well as the Al\u00e9o Foundation's official pages on our platforms:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/fondation-aleo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/fondation-aleo\">LinkedIn<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fondationaleo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/fondationaleo\">Facebook<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fondationaleo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fondationaleo\">Instagram<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@fondationaleo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@fondationaleo\">YouTube<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/user\/31xqrjlt4i255p57yei4bnpragom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/user\/31xqrjlt4i255p57yei4bnpragom\">Spotify<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 30 \u2013<\/p>\n<p><b>Annie Dub\u00e9<br \/>\n<\/b>Director of Communications and Marketing<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/fondationaleo.ca\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/fondationaleo.ca\">Al\u00e9o Foundation<br \/>\n<\/a>438-884-6626<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:annie.dube@fondationaleo.ca\" data-cke-saved-href=\"mailto:annie.dube@fondationaleo.ca\">annie.dube@fondationaleo.ca<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Montr\u00e9al, 27 mai 2024 \u2013 La Fondation Al\u00e9o et le CF Montr\u00e9al ont remis quatre bourses \u00e0 de jeunes joueuses et joueurs de soccer de grand talent lors du match du samedi 25 mai au Stade Saputo, totalisant 10 000 $ en bourses et services pour ces athl\u00e8tes.
