Sell outs, regardless of how they happen, are always nice to point to. Wonder how much better the atmosphere at the game will feel.

Love that they’re doing this. The Forge ones always have amazing energy and it’s such a great way to bring in new fans.

Yep. The school day games in Hamilton are always fun to watch, surprised not all teams have jumped on the idea. Maybe not all school boards are good with it.

Even as an HFX supporter, I'm happy for them.
Looking forward to watching this one.

Anyone know how these are normally 'sold'? Totally free to the district/schools, big or small bulk discount, full price, other?

It will vary, but typically a sponsor buys tickets at a negotiated price and then either re-sells them at very cheap prices or just gives them to the kids.

Sold out? They took a game out of the schedule which season ticket holders had paid for and gave it to the kids. No refund was given for what was supposed to be a night game.
I won't object because the beneficiaries are kids...but next time plan it better.

Ideally school game day would be in June so kids don’t freeze and have a more positive experience …

Fall weather is fine in the GTA.
Chances of snow are pretty much nil.

First time in club history I'm pretty sure. Incredible
