The 2025 Cavalry FC season is the seventh season in the history of Cavalry FC. In addition to the Canadian Premier League, the club competed in the Canadian Championship and in the CONCACAF Champions Cup.[1]

On February 6, Cavalry FC made history by becoming the first Canadian Premier League side to obtain a win in the CONCACAF Champions Cup, after defeating Liga MX team Pumas UNAM.[2] The 2025 season also saw Cavalry come runner-up in the club's fourth Canadian Premier League Final appearance in the league's 7 seasons, and third appearance in a row.
