Halifax Soccer Team Needs Your Help



Here's a letter we received from Kevin McKenzie, coach of the Halifax County United (HCU) U12B Girls Soccer Team. You can help his team of girls

Our Halifax County United U12 Girls were selected from over 550 teams Nationally to be recognized as the BMO team of the week. This competition extends beyond soccer, it focuses on life lessons, the importance of teamwork, fun and community involvement.

In all, only 15 teams from across the country will compete for the grand prize and we are the only Nova Scotia team. From August 1 - 15th, the winning team will be selected based on community voting on the BMO site and we need everyone's help to win the grand prize which focuses on a significant community investment! We are competing against teams in much larger markets and need everyone's help!!

The winning BMO team is awarded the following:

$125000.00 investment in local field up-grades. This will offer benefit to a significant portion of the HRM community, not only soccer!
$5000.00 donation to a local charity of our choosing (We already received a $500.00 donation as BMO Team of the Week. The girls chose Kidsport which provides access to organized sports for families who are financially challenged.)
Team trip to Toronto to experience a Toronto FC game.


Our team was featured in a

National CTV spot.
