On November 2, Forge FC defeated Santos de Guápiles in the quarter-finals of the CONCACAF League to qualify for the 2022 edition of the CONCACAF Champions League, becoming the first Canadian Premier League club to do so.[1] The club eventually bowed out of the competition in the semi-finals against Motagua.[2]

On November 9, Forge defeated York United to clinch first place in the Canadian Premier League.[3] This secured Forge the CPL Regular Season title, an honour that the league announced it will recognize retroactively.[4]
