It's the fifth year that the Ontario Junior Hockey League club has participat- ed in the Mayor's Bowl for Kids' Sake fundraiser, en- tering eight teams for this year's tournament, held at Champs Family Entertain- ment Centre in Milton for the first time due to the clo- sure of Georgetown Bowl last summer. There are still a few spots to fill for the friendly team competition and the cost is $500 per entry. All funds raised will remain in Halton Hills to support the group's mentoring pro- grams. For more info call 905-339-2355 ext. 222 or email Kristin.vanderwa- ter@bigbrothersbigsis- ters.ca. For fifth-year Raiders' forward Andrew Court, supporting the BBBS doesn't just happen once a year. The 20-year-old from Burlington has been a Big Brother to a boy named Ca- leb for the past four years, taking over from older sib- ling and former Raider Richard after he headed off to play at Division III Ham- ilton College. "Caleb's awesome. He's going to high school now and this is a big year for him," said Court, who is tied for the lead in Raiders' scoring this season with 17 goals and 36 assists. "We go to the movies and he comes over to our house. He loves playing video games and I try to get him out to play soccer. He loves that too." Court, the OJHL's 2015- 16 Scholastic Player of the Year, is also the first Raider since Campbellville's Rob Sgarbossa to play five sea- sons with the team and an- nounced last week that he'll also attend Hamilton College, located in Clinton, N.Y.
