Join the Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame at its induction dinner next month and get a chance to bid on what will likely become a collector's item.
Highlighting this year's induction dinner will be an autographed jersey of Canada's bronze-medal-winning national women's soccer team.
The soccer jersey is inscribed by all 11 starters, including heralded team captain and the pride of south Burnaby, Christine Sinclair.
Also sure to excite dinner guests is a signed Canadian national team uniform from the the recent world junior hockey championships in Ufa, Russia.
There is also a rugby jersey signed by Waisale Serevi and John Golling, two of the world's foremost sevens players, up for auction.
There are also autographed items donated by the MLS Vancouver Whitecaps and the CFL B.C. Lions, including two tickets to a regular season game, available through the auction. There will also be Vancouver Canadians baseball items up for auction.
Please bring your cheque book. At present, the Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame cannot accept credit cards or debit.
The Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame induction dinner will be held at the Firefighters' hall in Metrotown on Thursday, Feb. 28.
Tickets are $75 and are available online at tickets09@ shaw.ca, or by phoning Rosemary at 604-436-1672.
