Press Release

The Owen Sound Attack, in partnership with Bell is announcing that the annual Bell Awards BBQ and Banquet will be held on the arena floor of the Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre on Sunday, May 26th beginning at 1:00pm. Tickets for the Bell Awards BBQ and Banquet are available at the Attack Box Office and are $12.00 for Adults and $8.00 for children 12 years of age and under. The afternoon includes a BBQ lunch, beverage, player awards and other great prizes.

Lunch will begin being served immediately at 1:00pm and be served until 2:00pm while awards will follow.

In addition to the Bell Awards Banquet and BBQ, the Attack will also be holding the Bell/Attack Softball Blast where four teams made up of current players, prospects, alumni and local media will go head to head.

The softball portion of the day will begin at 9:00am at Duncan MacLellan park in Owen Sound where two teams will play on the North Diamond and two teams in the South Diamond. Each team will play two games with the top two teams playing in the Final. Fans are encouraged to come to the diamond to enjoy the action, meet the players, mingle with alumni and enjoy refreshments.

Also, the Owen Sound Attack will not be hosting a golf tournament this off season as they have done in past years.

“Unfortunately, there were a number of factors working against us that went into this decision.”, stated Attack Director of Marketing and Public Relations, Brent Fisher. “ We feel our new format with the softball in the morning will allow for a more interactive experience for our fans, prospects, players, alumni and parents, which is the ultimate goal. We’d like to thank Stone Tree Golf & Fitness and their staff for their tremendous hospitality over the years.”

Tickets for the Bell Awards Banquet and BBQ are on sale now at the Attack Box Office.
