PURPOSE OF THE WEEKEND
Your support means you will have an impact on the lives of young female hockey players through fulfilling our mission to support and address the needs of female players who have the desire to play, but are unable to for financial reasons. This weekend is supported and sponsored by Esso Fun Days.
Not only that but on the same weekend, the Grindstone team is hosting our 2nd Annual Women’s Charity Tournament. If you have a daughter that wants to try hockey – this is her chance.
