What is Team Rogers Community Draft
Team Rogers Community Draft is a community sports program that gives youth athletes the chance to be mentored by their sports heroes, while providing their parents with financial support to help them return to play. On October 30th, #TeamRogers is drafting 1,000 minor hockey players. Be part of a larger team alongside our existing #TeamRogers captains, including Connor McDavid, John Tavares, Marie-Philip Poulin, Bo Horvat, Mark Scheifele, Darnell Nurse, and more!
Chief Hudson said, “Our great partnership with Rogers has helped the community and members in so many ways as not just Information Technology improvements. This community draft program provides a chance for our children to participate in programs outside our community especially during trying times. I hope many of our young athletes here apply online and see where this may take them”.
