PLYMOUTH, Mich. –
Hockey Canada has launched its online auction of Team
Canada-signed and personalized jerseys now through April 8. Only five
jerseys, signed by all 23 members of Canada’s National Women’s Team at the
2017 IIHF Women’s World Championship, will be up for bid.
Hosted on eBay.ca, the online auction raises funds for the Hockey Canada
Foundation to support the growth of the game across the country.
“These online auctions allow us to give hockey fans something truly
memorable from their national team heroes, while ensuring we continue to
have the resources needed to grow hockey at the grassroots level from coast
to coast to coast,” said Donna Iampieri, executive director of the Hockey
Canada Foundation.
The auction runs through Saturday, April 8 – the day after the medal games
at the 2017 IIHF Women’s World Championship. Winning bidders will be able
to select the name-bar and numbers for their jersey. Shipping will commence
on April 24.
