All proceeds from the breakfast support scholarships for Vikes student-athletes – a key ingredient for success. Your registration today will empower student-athletes to excel in their sport, as well as helping Vikes to recruit and retain top-performing athletes.
Your support can be directed to a specific varsity program or to the Vikes general fund. The 2022 event will take place in person. Virtual tickets are also available. If you choose to purchase a virtual ticket, you will be sent a recording of the event and the full amount of your virtual seat or table will be receipted as a donation.
We are pleased to have Canadian field hockey icon and Vikes alumna, Kathleen Leahy, as our Vikes Championship Breakfast keynote speaker this year. Read the full story.
