The 'Greyhounds Guardians' Charity Game will feature two hybrid rosters that will pair Greyhounds and their Special Olympic representatives together on each team.

This is main event of the season between the two organizations and is a culmination of three months (7 practices) that were held between the two groups.

The Greyhounds Guardian program started in December 2024 with the objective of helping teach and expand the skills and understanding of hockey to the participants by the Greyhounds' coaching staff and players.

Participants range in age of 10 to 63 years old.

Members of the community are invited to come out and show their support for the athletes this coming Wednesday Night (March 8th) for the Inaugural 'Greyhounds Guardians' Charity game.
