Gaels Host Ironheads Sunday
The Gaels are hosting the Ironheads this Sunday, April 21st at Darlington Arena at 2PM in the final exhibition game prior to the OJBLL Regular Season getting underway on May 2.
With the Gaels heading the Pickering last season to take on the Ironheads in a exhibition matchup, it was the Gaels turn to host a spring tuneup as the new roster, along with some Gaels prospects, will get a chance to get into game shape against the rival Ironheads.
Coming off an 18-7 victory in Guelph this past Sunday, the Gaels will look to build on the foundation that Head Coach Jay Lee and Assistant Coaches Chris Tucker and Ryan Preston have been putting into place ahead of the season. Preparing for a 20 game regular season in the OJBLL in which parity has been more apparent than ever, getting the roster into shape and prepared takes on more meaning each year.
Tickets for Sundays exhibition game are $8 for adults, $5 for seniors and students, while children are admitted free. This will be your last opportunity to catch the boys in Green prior to the OJBLL season getting started in Brampton on May 2nd. The Green Gaels first home game will be at the Garnet B. Rickard Recreation Complex on May 16th at 8PM when the Gaels take on the same Brampton Excelsiors they open the season against.
