Lace up your skates because Youth For Christ is having a Hockey Clash. Executive Director of YFC Portage Art Schroeder details the event.

"We are having a hockey fundraiser coming up on March 10th at the BDO Centre. We're hoping to have about six teams participate in the event with each person raising a minimum of a hundred dollars to play. The money that we raise will go towards all of our programs at YFC."

Schroeder notes some of the prizes are pretty amazing. For the individual who raises the most money, they will receive a pair of Winnipeg Jets tickets, a meal and a one-night stay in Winnipeg. He adds that the person who raises the most money on each team will be given an official Jets jersey. Other prizes are also available.

He describes the different ways you can get involved.

"You just have to get a pledge form from Youth For Christ. We're looking for people to potentially put in a team so if they want to do that they can contact YFC. If someone wants to pledge money but doesn't know anyone playing they can go on our website under fundraisers and pledge money there."
