St. Catharines Wolves, also known as St. Catharines Roma Wolves or simply Roma Wolves, are a Canadian soccer team, founded in 1996. The team is a member of the Canadian Soccer League, the highest level soccer league in Canada, and play in the National Division.
The team currently play their home games in the stadium on the grounds of Club Roma, a multi-purpose sports and recreation in the city of St. Catharines, Ontario, 13 miles from the US/Canadian border at Niagara Falls . The team's colors are dark red and white, mimicking those of the famous Italian club AS Roma.
The team played in its first two years, the summers of 1996 and 1997, in the Canadian National Soccer League (CNSL). They then played from 1998 through 2005 in the Canadian Professional Soccer League, which in 2006 was renamed the Canadian Soccer League. The club is not to be confused with the similarly named St. Catharines Wolves, which belonged also belong to the CNSL, in 1995, or the St. Catharines Roma of the same league that existed until from 1978 to 1994. (Note - the CNSL was known as simply the National Soccer League (NSL) until 1993.)
