Dundas
Real McCoys Haiti Relief Game |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dundas--In
support of the Media Day Fundraising efforts in our community
this past
Tuesday, the Dundas Real McCoys have pledged
to contribute 20 percent the net proceeds of Friday’s
(tomorrow) Major League Hockey game against the Orillia Tundras
to the Haiti
Relief efforts.
Game time in the JL Grightmire Arena is 7:45 PM. “We have an opportunity and obligation to help and make a contribution to these efforts. We will follow the lead of this great community in any way we can,“ said McCoys President and General Manager, Don Robertson. “Our fans are joining with us in this effort, and we thank them sincerely for the support.” More information contact: Don Robertson (905) 627-4880 “More Than Just A Hockey Team “ |

| Brantford Blast back in 2010 with a new deal | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The
Blast are coming back to play Major League Hockey in 2010
after Brantford City Council unanimously approved a five
year contract
that gives Blast team owner Peter Ham the rights for his
team to
play hockey and sell advertising at the Brantford Civic
Centre. The Blast took a one-year leave of absence after failing to renew (by June 28/09) the arena/advertising agreements they had enjoyed with the City since 2002. The new deal replaces the preceding two separate contracts and sets the stage for long-term sustainability of the Blast. Councillors vowed not to let a similar challenge arise again in the future. The Brantford Blast is the last team to bring the Allan Cup Championship home to the OHA since 1987. The Blast hosted the 100th Allan Cup tournament in April 2008 at the Civic Centre and won it. This was the first time in history that the championship was televised live coast-to-coast thanks to TSN. Blast owner Peter Ham said, “Major League Hockey of this calibre is played in many centres across Canada from Newfoundland to British Columbia and points in between. But in my estimation, we'll be rejoining the most committed, unselfish group of sportsmen in the game. The men who own and operate Orillia, Dundas, Norwood, and Whitby have demonstrated their toughness, dedication and resolve to keep senior hockey alive. Senior hockey has been in existence since 1892 and these guys know the future of the oldest league in the world is in their hands.” In the meantime, fans are invited to make plans to be at the Brantford Civic Centre on Friday, October 1st for the Bombshell. WE'LL BLAST AGAIN IN 2K10 |
