The Victoria Royals are currently on a franchise-record eight-game home stand, and what perfect timing, as about a dozen players take part in this year’s Movember campaign in support of men’s health and the Movember Foundation.
Royals Blake Bargar, Jared Dmytriw, Ryan Gagnon, Dante Hannoun, Jeremy Masella, Griffen Outhouse, Matthew Phillips, Ethan Price, Chaz Reddekopp, Jack Walker and Gunnar Wegleitner have been selected as this year’s “MoBros” and will compete for donations throughout the month of November.
Fans wishing to donate to the “Mo Bros” can do so by visiting the Royals’ Movember page and following the links to the players’ respective donation pages.
The Royals kicked off their eight-game homestand against the Red Deer Rebels on Tuesday with a 6-4 victory.
