Who are we?

We are the Ottawa Invaders; the newest addition to the NFC (Northern Football Conference). We are a very talented group of athletes, selected from the Ottawa football Community.

The NFC has been in existence since 1954, and is a semi-professional league based in Ontario. The league plays by Canadian rules, with a few differences including: four downs, and a line of scrimmage without a one year neutral zone.

How did the team start?

It was founded by students James McAllister and Erik Faucon, both former Sir Wilfrid Laurier high school and Cumberland Panthers teammates.

Through word of mouth and Facebook popularity, Sean Murphy and Richard Smith II heard about the attempt to establish the semi-pro team, and immediately dedicated themselves to bringing football to Ottawa.

Administration acquired the help of Head Coach Ken Evraire and began its training and recruiting!

"I really believe opportunity is knocking.  As the only professional football team in the city I think we can capture an audience that loves football and will support football. I believe the goal is to set a high level of expectation and not sway from it regardless of the outcome of the games. We represent Ottawa and it's imperative that we do so with class and with an attention to detail." Ken Evraire

Our Mission

Our aim is to provide Ottawa with a football team that will showcase Ottawa talent and produce an exciting product that the football community will be proud to embrace.
