The Brampton Dixie Lions will face Italia Shooters Reserve team to open the
2009 CSL season. This game has a special meaning to owner Tony DeThomas,
as he is dedicating this game to the people effected from the earthquake in Italy.
Dear Italian - Canadian,
I am sure that you have heard of the tragedy that has occurred in L’Aquila, in the
Province of Abruzzi, Italy.
I was born in the small town of Abbateggio, in the Province of Abruzzi.
The town of Abbateggio is approximately 100 km away from the town of L’Aquila.
As owner of the Italia Shooters, a soccer team in the City of Vaughan Ontario, I would
like to help raise funds for the earthquake stricken area and donate to a trust relief
fund all of the proceeds of our home opener. The Italia Shooters play against the
Montréal Impact Reserve team on Friday May 15, kick-off time is 8:15 pm. Also
playing that night (kick-off 6:30pm) will the Woodbridge Strikers, the Italia Shooters
official reserve team vs the Brampton Dixie Lions,the official reserve team of the
Brampton Lions. Both teams are from a city that is highly populated by
Italian-Canadians.
The City of Vaughan has one of the highest populations of Italian-Canadians in
Canada. We would like your support in coming out to the game and donate whatever
amount you can afford. We will also provide a minute of silence to honour the
deceased.
Please help us spread the event - your co-operation would be most appreciated.
Please email me any thoughts, comments, suggestions and support back to my
personal email address tdt@dethomasfinancial.com or to our soccer email
address at info@italishooters.ca
Thank you and hope to see you at our event,
Tony De Thomasis

Italia Shooters, of the City of Vaughan
