If you live in Mississauga and needed another reason to check out Mississauga Eagles FC, who joined the Canadian Soccer League this year, here it is: This Sunday (June 5), the team will be sporting specially-designed jerseys, in support National Cancer Survivors Day, for their game against the Toronto FC Academy. The jerseys will then be auctioned off, with the proceeds supporting the National Cancer Survivors Foundation.
Chances are, you know someone who has battled or is battling the disease (I do), so you probably don't need to be told this is a worthy endeavour. Tickets are $10 and the game is at Hershey Field. When we talk about supporting local soccer, this is the sort of thing we mean -- this time, you get to support an important cause while you're at it.
More details can be found at the club's website, MississaugaEaglesFC.com.
