Grey Cup Celebration Sunday, November 25 at the Centre
There will be something for everyone on Grey Cup Sunday as past players from the Canadian Football League host an exciting afternoon at the Centre. The event, running from 1 o’clock until the end of the game will include snacks, appetizers and dinner. Before the game, co-hosts Trevor Bowles and Chuck McMann, both Grey Cup Champions, will introduce other guest players and have displays of their equipment, uniforms, grey cup rings and other memorabilia. A video in which Trevor was followed during Grey Cup week will provide insight as to what the players experienced during the event. Past historic Grey Cup Games will be shown as a prelude to the 2018 game.
There will be a football pool for the game with ticket sales starting mid October. During the game there will be football bingo, 50/50 draws and door prize draws for items provided by the CFL teams and the sponsors for the event as well as an opportunity for photos with the players. More information will be in the next newsletter and on our web site.
Tickets will be available at the Centre in mid October and will be $30.
Hosts:
Trevor Bowles played in the CFL from 1984 to 1991 during his career with the Montreal Concordes, Edmonton Eskimos and Montreal Alouettes. Trevor played on the 1987 Edmonton Eskimo Grey Cup winning team.
Chuck McMann was a former running back for 10 seasons with the Montreal Alouettes and Montreal Concordes, winning a Grey Cup championship in 1977. As assistant coach with the Calgary Stampeders, McMann coached in four Grey Cup games, capturing championship titles in 1992 and 1998. Chuck was the Calgary Stampeders’ receivers coach until 2007 and in 2008 joined the BC Lion as the special teams coordinator and running back coach. He was with the BC Lions 2011 team when they won the Grey Cup.
Trevor and Chuck are excited to be co-hosting the event and are currently extending invitations to other retired and active players and sportscasters living in our area to join them for this event.
