1928 in Canadian football

The Tri-City Rugby Football League was formed on August 25 and consisted of Moose Jaw, Regina and two teams from Winnipeg. The league played an unbalanced schedule. Provincial champions for the MRFU and SRFU were determined by head-to-head games of provincial rivals in the Tri-City League. The Union disbanded the following year because of travel expenses. Saskatchewan and Manitoba reverted to playing games within their respective provinces. First radio play-by-play broadcast of a Grey Cup Game was on December 1. Jack Hamilton served as president of the Western Interprovincial Football Union for the season. ==Regular season==
