On Saturday the High River Soccer Association hosted a special Canada 150 event where the community could come together and enjoy soccer!

Starting at 11:30am, the Community team kicked off against the Mexican IRERI Smiles team.

During the event you could enter to win a few great prizes including a signed Women's Canadian Soccer team jersey and two signed photpgraphs from the Calgary Flames.

There was also a parents vs. kids games later in the afternoon, finishing off with the Women of High River vs. the Women's Mexican Smiles team at 2:00pm.

Tony Walker, organizer of the event, says it was a great way to get the community together.
