U16 A Team Helps Give Back to the Community
The U16A Team in partnership with the Salvation Army was able to Raise over $10,000 in donations supporting the Salvation Army Christmas Family Support Drive on Saturday!




The Salvation Army has recently kicked off their Christmas "Kettle" Drive, seeking donations to help out families in need. According to the Guelph branch of the Salvation Army there are over 12,000 Guelph families in need this year.

Our U16A players realize how fortunate they are and all agreed to step up to support this years Christmas drive. The entire Team spent their Saturday morning at Stone Road mall working two Salvation Army Charity Donation stations. In just over two hours, this group of young men were able to secure over $10,000 in donations from shoppers to dedicate to the Salvation Army's Christmas Family Support Drive. All of of these donations go directly towards food and toy hampers for those registered in the Guelph community throughout the holidays.
"I could not be more proud of this group of young men" said Coach Dom

A big congrats to the players for their time and energy helping out their community in such a kind and big way!
