Join us on Thursday, June 13, 2024 at 8:00 AM at the beautiful Rock Gardens of Royal Botanical Gardens for a day dedicated to promoting men's mental health through the power of sports.

Regardless of your age or stage in life, when it comes to Mental Health, let's take the wrapper off " What your Mother didn't tell you and your Father didn't know".

Mental Health is the most important topic of our time.

  • Are we getting closer to conquering the generational divide in being open about Mental Health?
