Snow and cold couldn’t slow us down as a record-breaking 150 athletes hit the field and made it an unforgettable day of rugby. The energy, compete level, and commitment from these athletes proved that nothing stops this group.

Huge thanks to the players, coaches, parents, referees, and Rugby Manitoba for making it all happen. Special shoutout to the referee clinic crew for keeping things running smooth and safe all day long.

Big appreciation to Boston Pizza St. Vital and Tim Hortons for keeping everyone fuelled, and to our Assassins players and coaches who continue to show up and give back.

A massive thank you to Brendan Kowal for organizing a day that keeps getting bigger every year.

Most importantly — this day stays completely free for athletes, thanks to the continued support from our community and the Assassins Alumni Memorial Golf Tournament.
