Join Us On July 15th at City View Park For a Full Day of Soccer & Mental Health Awareness!
An estimated 1.2 million children and youth in Canada are affected by mental illness. Our Kickin’ It For Mental Health event brings together a few things we are passionate about at BSC; community, mental health, supporting our youth, and football. This year, on Saturday, July 15th, bring your family and friends to watch our Girls and Boys and U13, and U15 OPDL teams play at City View Park (2500 Kerns Road).
