Toys for Tots

For a number of years now, the Bantam AAA Mid-Isle Matrix have shown their support for the Toys for Tots Campaign. This year, we would like to continue this support for our Island children over the Christmas season. We would kindly like to reach out to our fans, friends and families to bring along a new unwrapped toy to one of the two Mid Isle Matrix home games:

• Tuesday, November 28th Mid-Isle Matrix vs Attack at APM Game Time 7:30pm
• Tuesday, December 5th Mid-Isle Matrix vs Express at Kensington Game Time 7:30pm

During the week of December 11th, the team will present all of the unwrapped toys to Ocean 100! It would be wonderful for the team to have a huge donation to present!! For this... we need your help!!
