The inaugurals Team North America WBDHF O35/O45 Worlds 4v4 Tourney Dinner Gala and fundraiser held last night Marquis Gardens Event Venues in up-and-coming Hamilton, ON. was a HUGE success in support of our programs trip to the Dominican Republic in November 2023 to compete in the ‘Masters’ and ‘Legends’ Divisions World Ball/Dek Hockey Championships World Ball & Dek Hockey Federation - WBDHF
In front of a packed house , Formal Team introductions were made for both squads - including these 2 doppelgängers, selected to wear the “C” for their respective squads - Congrats Captain DeSilva and all of the 35+ elite team members selected! #LFG
Not to be outdone by my gorgeous date Ruthanne Marie who always makes me look ? better.
A sincere special thanks to Mr. Tony Pereira, and his lovely wife, as well as Leo Wristen and his crew for spearheading this monumental event for our program and our sport. The new uniform kits look amazing as does all the swag - also for sale . (see video if you’re interested in purchasing a TNA hat and/or sweater to support our teams and look great! In FB).
Thank you to Mr. Kevin Clark for his leadership in bringing our program back to the international stage after a challenging few years —> Extra special thank you to late Mr. Brian Broley for being a pioneer to ‘Ball-hockey” - the fastest growing sport on the planet - Brians passion for the game and the “ballhockey community” made it possible for a guy like me - along with my talented teammates - to still be playing and competing for World Championships against the best players in the world -Czechia, Slovakia, Canada, Great Britain, Dominican rep. and Team Quebec.
Drink to my teammates who made the trip to be part of this 1st annual event!
