Hey Hamilton, Do you remember when we made a wager with our #Spectra sister venue @AbbotsfordCentre that our home town @honeybadgers.cebl would take the win against @FVBandits.cebl during their August 1st game? The Badgers took the win, and we took it upon ourselves to challenge the Abbotsford Centre to complete an act of kindness within the community.... We also wanted to share in on the wealth, so we decided that we would participate too! A couple of members of our #Spectra team went live on location to @mcmasterchildrens to give back to those whove gone above and beyond to deliver exceptional care and support during this uncertain time. Although we couldnt thank everyone in person, we want to thank all superheroes that wear masks. Swipe for some photos! Hey @Abbotsfordcentre, lets do this again! #HamOnt #SpectraCares @cebleague

The league is now focused exclusively on a multi-week tournament that would see all seven clubs convene in a single location in Ontario to play a round...-robin slate of games culminating in a single-elimination playoff that will determine the 2020 league champion.
