The 2024 York United FC season is the sixth season in the history of York United FC. In addition to the Canadian Premier League, the club will compete in the Canadian Championship.
After a 2023 season in which it was operated by Canadian Soccer Business, York United was sold to a new Mexican ownership group, Game Plan Sports, in late November 2023.[1] York United will play the 2024 season at York Lions Stadium, while the new owners will be looking into alternative permanent venues for the future.[2]
