This mental health awareness game is part of the Owen Sound Attack's ongoing partnership with CMHA Grey Bruce and its Talk Today program. Originally launched by CMHA Ontario in partnership with the Ontario Hockey League in 2014, Talk Today provides an important opportunity to address the mental health needs of athletes across Canada. Through this program, over 2,500 OHL players and over 550 coaches, billets and staff have received mental health and suicide prevention training across the league.

The key piece of the Talk Today program has been to educate players about mental health and suicide prevention. Each team is also linked to a CMHA mental health coach, who provides support and mental health resources to individuals in need.

"Talk Today has been an incredible awareness tool for us in terms of having the students hear about how the Attack players maintain their good mental health during a stressful hockey season," said Jackie Ralph, Youth Awareness and Education Supervisor of CMHA Grey Bruce.

"We're so excited to be able to once again bring the Talk Today game back into the Bayshore" said Amelia Boyd, Coordinator of Communications and Community Relations for the Attack. "The discussion of mental health is so important. Being able to share this in a positive light and working on eliminating the stigmas around mental health is something we're really proud of as an organization and a team."

Tickets for the game are still available, starting from $20.75. For ticket information, visit the MacVicar & McComb Sutton Realty Attack Box Office in-person or by phone at 519-371-7452 or online anytime at tickets.attackhockey.com.
