“Our goal is to create a connection between our fans and the team,” said Anthony LeBlanc, president,business operations, Ottawa Senators Hockey Club. “While COVID-19 protocols prohibit our ability to open the arena to fan attendance, we want to recognize their importance to our game and our players. With proceeds supporting the Senators Community Foundation, fans we be supporting the team and our community.”
Cutouts – which may feature a person or a pet – will be on display in the 100-level end sections of Canadian Tire Centre, will be featured on the team’s social media channels, and may even appear on game broadcasts. Orders will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Fans will not have the option to select their own seats.
Fans can place their order today to have their image submitted and approved to appear for an upcoming Senators home game. After the season, fans can retrieve their cutout from Canadian Tire Centre at the end of the season or have it shipped to them for a cost of $25.
About the Senators Community Foundation
The Senators Community Foundation is built on three pillars: mind, body and soul and focuses on strengthening the connection between the team and the community by addressing the issues of accessibility and inclusion.
The Foundation directs its support to organizations and programs that are making a difference for children and youth across the region. To do this, the Foundation applies a team mentality – much like that of the team on the ice – and relies on key partnerships within the community to achieve success.
