Feeling social? The Booster Club meets once a month at a Booster Club General Meeting. At these meetings you can meet a player, talk with a Worcester Sharks staff member to receive the latest news on the Worcester Sharks. If all of this isn’t enough, how about a game of broomball? The Booster Club hosted the annual Broomball Tournament at the New England Sports Center. Hooked yet? Well, there’s more. Anyone feel like a parade? The Booster Club participates in the Columbus Day Parade down Shrewsbury Street in October and the Annual St.Patrick’s Day Parade on Park Avenue in March!
Being a Booster Club member isn’t all fun and games, though. The Boosters take their community involvement very seriously. The Booster Club conducts 50/50 raffles every home game to benefit a variety of local charities. The Booster Club holds two banquets each year. The Holiday Banquet is where you will see the Boosters holding a toy drive for local youths. The Boosters will also assist with a Clothing Drive. The Annual Awards Banquet is held in the spring where players are honored with various awards from the Boosters. Boosters are always welcomed to assist in planning the banquets that see Boosters and Worcester Sharks players sitting together having a wonderful evening. Another important fundraiser for the Booster Club is by volunteering to help out with the DCU concession stands during various events. Training is given to each member. This is a wonderful opportunity to be with other Boosters & to have a great time working with one another!
All aboard! Road games are just as much fun for the Booster Club. The Booster Club has traveled to cheer on the Worcester Sharks in Portland, Providence, Albany and Springfield where the cost of the trip is affordable including bus transportation and ticket. Raffle prizes are given out on the bus. This year, a trip is being planned for Norfolk, Virginia. With the fun Booster Club road trips you don’t have to miss one exciting minute of Worcester Sharks hockey! Discounted tickets are also available for Sharks away games if you choose to go on your own.
Join the Worcester Sharks Booster Club at any home game by registering at the Booster Club table behind section 109. You can also print out a membership form from the Booster Club’s website, www.sharksboosters.com.
