Inspiring the next generation: Hear from our local girls' hockey association
“The Collingwood Lightning Girls Hockey Association is so grateful for the support of partners like Blundstone, whose generous contributions help make it possible for us to provide more opportunities for girls to play hockey in our community. Last season, Blundstone’s support helped us to host our first-ever Collingwood Thundersnow Girls Hockey Tournament. With 47 teams and over 750 players competing over the course of 3 days, the tournament was a resounding success, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the support of sponsors like Blundstone.”
