U16 BB/B – RED Update Ep 4
Read on to learn more about our upcoming tournament, quick team pic, fundraising, and sponsorships.

TOURNAMENT

We’re only a week away from our early bird tournament in St Catharines.  Thank you to families for making it a priority.  It gives players and parents alike a chance to build stronger bonds.  Our schedule has been posted to our official team site, but if you want to follow along in the action, you can follow the link here.  It has pool standings and real time scores.

We have our team lunch at Boston Pizza between games on Friday at 2:30pm.  Thank you to those who have signed up; and thank Joel for putting that all together.

Let’s not forget about the legendary after (round robin) party on Saturday back at the hotel.  We’re doing a potluck.  Mylene, coach Derek wanted me to ask about your world famous chicken wings.  Families, if you haven’t signed up, get your selection in now.  Click the link here to sign up.  Thanks Becky for getting this off the ground.

Don’t forget to bring your poker face!

FUNDRAISING

One more week to go for our Mint smoothies!  We have officially kicked off our team fundraising with a fan favourite- Rheo Thompson Mint Smoothie Chocolate Bars, available in MILK and DARK chocolate for $3.50/bar.

You can send your orders to Jen directly and email transfer the amount to the team account.  Please be sure to include your player’s name when you send your e-transfer.  Orders will be accepted until Thursday, October 17th.

QUICK PIC

Becky is doing up a quick team photo on the stairs to use for our banner.  Please remember to bring both game jerseys.  We’ll do up a quick photo before stepping on the ice for practice on Monday Oct 14.

SPONSORSHIPS

Team sponsorships are open until October 31.   Looks like we have 3 or 4 already, which is great.   There was a considerable increase to rep fees this year, so every little bit helps to offset those costs.  Thank you to families who are out actively soliciting team sponsorships.

See you at practice tomorrow.

 
Sponsors
Timbits
The Timbits Minor Sports Program is a community-oriented sponsorship program for children four to eight years old who participate in local house league sports teams. The program's philosophy is not based on winning or losing - but on learning a new sport, making new friends, and just taking time out to be a kid. Tim Hortons currently sponsors over 200,000 children who play on hockey, soccer, lacrosse, t-ball, baseball and ringette teams across Canada and in the United States. Each sponsored team is supplied with Timbits Minor Sports jerseys or T-shirts. Timbits hockey teams are often given the opportunity to play on-ice scrimmages during intermissions at Junior, American Hockey League (AHL) and National Hockey League (NHL) games and do so with our own KITCHENER JR. A RANGERS. Tim Horton's once again sponsor's our 40 entry level HL teams this year.
