Giveaway! Be The Game

Update:  This giveaway is closed, thank you everyone for commenting!!

Did you know Canada.. Be The Game is a national, community driven organization whose missions is to encourage children and individuals to give back to their community.


As a Mom to 2 boys that started soccer this summer and then just started hockey a few weeks ago I know the cost to join the game can be more than families can afford. The amount of required equipment at such young ages is, while I understand necessary for their safety, overwhelming. Let alone the cost just for signing up.

In fact, 1 in 3 families cannot afford to put their children in minor leagues sports, this is something Be The Game Sportswear is working to change. Be The Game donates 10% of all merchandise proceeds to Be The Game Sports Fund to support children in minor league sports. Check out their clothing line and custom sportswear sections to see what they have available.  I love the ball caps too, something perfect anyone can wear to show they are supporting kids in local sports.


You can also support Be The Game by talking with your local leagues about their fundraising efforts. I love that with Be The Game your team will become an active part in helping another young athlete join a minor league team - something to be proud of!

This is a fantastic organization that Canadians should support and stand behind to help make sports available to all of our kids.

    I learned that they do a bottle drive in order to help raise funds. I think this is a fantastic way to dispose of those empties rather than just throwing them out.

    Their goal is to sell 1 million BE THE GAME "power of sport" decals to raise $2 million dollars that will go directly to child development through the power of sport! They have sold over 13,000 so far!
