Recently a 15-year old referee was accosted and threatened in the parking lot following his officiating of a U12 game! This is UNACCEPTABLE. We have a shortage of match officials and we wonder why! Stand up for the ref’s, if you see it or hear it ask them to stop! #stopbullying

Our collaboration with @XavOuellette continues, this time with @ForgeFCHamilton kit concepts. Forge fans made us aware that there was a rumoured black and gold kit, so we had to include one.
Feedback is always appreciated!
