Friendlies

[edit]

Four days prior to the NPSL season opener, Cleveland scheduled a friendly against Northern Ohio Soccer League (NOSL) club Ambassadors FC Ohio, an under-23 affiliate of Women's Premier Soccer League club Cleveland Ambassadors and fellow NOSL team Ambassadors FC.[2] The game marked the Guardians' debut, and eventually only, match at Sparky DiBiasio Stadium.

NPSL

[edit]

The schedule for the Rust Belt Conference was released by the league and the respective clubs on March 16, 2021. No teams were added to or departed the conference, meaning that CSC was to play a ten-match schedule for the third straight league season.[3] At the time of the announcement, the Guardians had yet to confirm the club's home stadium for the season. Before the 2020 season was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, Cleveland had announced Lakewood Stadium and Krenzler Field as the club's dual homes.[4] Following the schedule release, Cleveland began selling tickets for home matches on the club website; Sparky DiBiasio Stadium in Euclid, Ohio was listed as the location.[5] A friendly match against Ambassadors FC Ohio was played there on May 12, and as of the beginning of the NPSL regular season it still appeared as though the Sparky DiBiasio would be Cleveland's home in 2021.[6] On May 25, just five days before the club's home opener, Cleveland announced that George Finnie Stadium in Berea, Ohio was the club's stadium for the season. Cleveland previously played at the George Finnie in 2019.[7]
