PGYSA Launches CLUB11 and My Assist, Our Goal

PGYSA is proud to announce the launch of CLUB11 and the My Assist, Our Goal fundraising program.  

As Prince George Youth Soccer Association (PGYSA) enters its 20^th anniversary at Rotary Field this season we wish to announce a major fund-raiser that will generate funds for youth programs throughout the city.

Prince George Youth Soccer players will raise money by gathering pledges from friends, family, neighbors, and the Prince George community.  Players ask their donors to pledge money per goal scored by both UNBC men’s and women’s soccer teams during the upcoming 2012 season.  If a donor would rather pledge a flat amount, that is also acceptable.  The drive for pledges will take place from May 26^th to June 8^th, 2012.  Pledge forms will be tallied and we will announce the total pledge per goal as we follow UNBC soccer teams in their inaugural season in Canada West action this fall.

Once the UNBC soccer season is concluded in October, donors will be contacted and donations collected.

Full details can be found in the 'Media Releases' and 'CLUB11' sections of this website.
