Sciarra steps down as Redblacks president after 0-9 start to season
OSEG said the new president will help reshape the football operation after Ottawa’s 0-9 start and 15-game losing streak.
- On Monday, the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group announced Adrian Sciarra is stepping down as president of the Ottawa Redblacks following the team's winless 0-9 start to the Canadian Football League season.
- Mark Goudie, president and CEO of OSEG, stated the decision originated with Sciarra, who suggested bringing in a full-time leader with a football background to address the team's struggles.
- Dating back to the 2025 campaign, the Redblacks have dropped 15 consecutive games, setting a modern-day league record for the longest losing streak in the CFL.
- OSEG has launched an immediate search for a permanent successor, with Goudie noting the new leader must be someone who "knows how to build teams" and understands Ottawa's football community.
- Sciarra will remain with OSEG as president and alternate governor of the Ontario Hockey League's Ottawa 67s, while the organization expects to name permanent executive leadership by the end of 2026.
