: ''This article is about the second Toronto Blizzard that played from 1986–1993. For the original team of the NASL, see Toronto Blizzard''. The Toronto Blizzard emerged from the folding of the North American Soccer League. It played in the Canadian soccer league from 1986–1992 before the CSL folded in 1992. The Blizzard attempted to play in the American Soccer League, but folded the very next season in 1993 after poor financial perspectives and lack of attendance. ==National Soccer League== In 1985, less than one year after the Toronto Blizzard ceased operations due to the failure of the North American Soccer League (the club had never actually folded), Blizzard owners York-Hanover purchased Dynamo Latino of the semi-professional Ontario-based National Soccer League (established 1926) with the intention of renaming them the Toronto Blizzard. While NSL regulations did not permit the name change in the midst of the season, the name Toronto Blizzard was part of the NSL in 1986. Under former assistant coach Dave Turner, the club won the League Championship and the NSL Cup while Toronto Italia won the Play-Off Championship. The Blizzard roster featured former NASL stars Paul Hammond, Randy Ragan, and Paul James. The Blizzard played only one season in the NSL in preparation to join the fledgling Canadian Soccer League in 1987. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toronto Blizzard (1986–93)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
