  • Memorandum of Understanding
    Memorandum of Understanding The Hamilton Tiger-Cats (“HTC”), working with the University of Guelph (“University”), would propose this Memorandum of Understanding (this “MOU”) as working document with the goal of making the University of Guelph (“Guelph”), the home base for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2013. The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are the oldest professional sports team in North America dating back to 1869. A proud and historic franchise with a tremendous national and regional following, the Tiger-Cats are on the precipice of a new golden era with the Pan Am Stadium opening as the home of the franchise in 2014. The 2013 season marks a tremendous opportunity for the Tiger-Cats to continue to execute their highly successful strategy of “regionalization”, and are currently looking for the right partners to enjoy a very mutually beneficial 2013 campaign. The Canadian Football League is “Canada’s League” and with the 100th Grey Cup Celebration in Toronto just over a month away, the importance and relevance of our league has never been stronger. With over 2 million Canadians annually attending games and with more than 60 million Canadians watching on TSN, making the CFL the #1 property on TSN, clearly the 2013 season represents a significant branding opportunity and partnership. The purpose of this MOU is to set out the broad parameters of our proposed relationship to ensure that all concerns are addressed prior to formalizing a definitive agreement regarding the subject matter of this MOU (the “Definitive Agreement”). This MOU shall not be taken as including all of the terms and conditions of the Definitive Agreement, which remains subject to further discussions.

Of course, 2020 has been anything but a usual year. There is no OUA football season this year and the Gryphons just returned to modified and scaled-down optional workouts late last month. “I'm just happy to be back in the swing of things with the guys after a very long layoff,” Gryphon strength and conditioning coach Adam Kania said. “Things are progressing well and the guys are happy to be back together so there's a little bit of a semblance of normalcy to it which is nice.” Most players in the area are back to working out, but in smaller sizes… To read more of this article written by Rob Massey, please click here. ​ ​ Judy Beeksma Opens up About Breast Cancer Breast Cancer survivor Judy Beeksma sat down with us to share her own personal story and how much it means to her to see her son and Gryphon Football suit up in pink.

  • Issue 14 – March 2018 Florida's IMG Academy
    Issue 14 – March 2018 Florida’s IMG Academy The Gryphons travelled down to the Sunshine State in February. The team went down south to Florida’s state-of-the-art IMG Academy to endure an intense, five-day training camp. The weather and IMG facilities were absolutely beautiful and the week served as an excellent bonding time for the team in addition to a great training period for the upcoming season. Our co-op student, Taylor Floris, provides greater insight on what the week entailed in her piece titled Gryphons in Florida: Through My Eyes. Click here to read. D to San Francisco Last month, we sent our talented Videographer, Dhanung Bulsara (also known as “D”), to the Social Media Strategies Summit in San Francisco. This conference had a variety of guest speakers, case studies, workshops and round-table discussions with other participants in order to strengthen one another’s social media skills. The Social Media Strategies Summit is “the longest running, most comprehensive social media conference in the US”. Here’s what D had to say when asked about the conference: "the social media strategies summit was a unique and insightful experience. It was great to be surrounded by like-minded individuals who were eager to master social media and get ahead of the competition. Social media is constantly evolving, so it was interesting to see how major brands were tackling the constant changes in this new age of marketing. It also served as a rewarding experience as I had the unique ability to expose our incredible program and shine some light on what we are trying to achieve with our own social media.” During his visit, D had the opportunity to meet with Dominic Simons, who is the Assistant Director of Digital Strategy and Operations at Stanford University.
