It's Been 25 Years, Time to Gather and Celebrate!
Rain or shine, former Redmen players, coaches and management are invited to gather in Brooklin to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Redmen 1985 Mann Cup Team - yes, the team that spotted the host Salmonbellies a 3 games to 0 lead and came back to win the cup. The same team that kickstarted a seven year dynasty unmatched in Major Series history.
