The Royal Victoria and Victoria Police will play hockey this weekend to raise money for the Victoria Police Sports Association.
Officials and Royals players will be mixed and split into two teams for Sunday’s game at the Save-On-Foods Memorial Center at 1:05 p.m.
The Victoria Police Sports Association is a non-profit organisation that supports community sport, academics, arts and activities.
“We are very grateful for our partnership with VicPD and the Victoria Police Athletic Association,” Royals general manager and head coach Dan Price said. “We all have a common interest in serving and supporting our communities in our own unique ways, and this charity event is one step in that ongoing process. Special thanks to Const. Cam MacIntyre, Det. Const. Arthur Walker and Const. I would like to thank Mandeep Sohi for their efforts to facilitate this partnership and for their tremendous contribution in planning and executing this event.”
Tickets can be purchased upon admission with a minimum donation of $5.
“I am looking forward to this great event, which will give VicPD officials the opportunity to share the iceberg on the ice with the players of Royal Victoria, a fantastic opportunity to support youth sports across Greater Victoria,” VicPD Principal Del Manak Say. “I thank the Royals for the opportunity to deepen the connection between VicPD, the Royals and our community.”
After the game, Royals players and VicPD members will play an open skating match, but fans will need to bring their own skates.
