Kingston Sentinels is a Canadian semi-professional soccer club based in Kingston, Ontario that competes in the men's and women's division of League2 Ontario.

History

In 2025, it was revealed that Victory Group Ventures began the process to secure a League1 Ontario expansion franchise for the city of Kingston, Ontario, for the 2026 season, with the goal of building a soccer-specific stadium for late 2026 or early 2027. [1] [2] [3] In September 2025, they were announced as an expansion franchise, entering League2 Ontario for the 2026 season. [4] [5] The club is supported by two local youth clubs, Atlético Kingston (who played in League1 Ontario from 2014 through 2016 as the Kingston Clippers) and Kingston United SC. [6] The city had been without semi-professional soccer for a decade, after the Kingston Clippers departed League1 Ontario after 2016 and Kingston FC departed the Canadian Soccer League after 2014. [7] They also announced the possibility of joining the professional Canadian Premier League as early as 2027. [8]
