Team Spotlight
We sponsor over 150 teams each year. Here are some that are leading the way to drive more diversity and inclusion in sports.
Soccability Canada
407 ETR is the first-ever sponsor of Soccability Canada’s Blind Soccer program, which supports training camps and awareness-raising efforts. As part of the sponsorship, each player received a Keep Moving™ by 407 ETR branded audible soccer ball to help train during their off time.
“The support from 407 ETR is a huge help as we look to grow the sport of blind soccer in Canada. The future of blind soccer is really positive and it’s through the support of companies like 407 ETR that we can raise awareness to grow the participant base and attract more fans.” Matt Greenwood, Executive Director, Pickering Football Club
Seaside Hockey
Seaside Hockey provides mentorship to BIPOC hockey players in the GTA. By removing financial barriers, the program fosters teamwork, sportsmanship and positive reinforcement in a fun, safe, inclusive environment.
Pickering Football Club
All are welcome on the pitch at Pickering Football Club; its All Abilities Program gives children and youth with intellectual and/or physical disabilities the opportunity to learn and play soccer with one-to-one support.
