“The Classlete Team is excited about this partnership. To see the game grow from my football playing days to where it is now with the expansion of Tackle Football, Touch Football, Female Football and Flag Football coupled with the growth from the grassroots level of U8 all the way through to U18 has been phenomenal,” said Chris James, Classlete Founder and CEO. “Football Ontario has been pivotal to growing the game to where it is today, and we look forward to helping athletes, parents, and their 116-member associations and clubs capture their moments through our free-to-join platform”.
“Without a question, sports card memorabilia is on the rise again, and we want to provide the optimal football experience for our members to capture their best moments in the game they love to play while increasing the visibility of our brand online each time their Classlete Sports Card is shared on social media,” said Aaron Geisler, Football Canada Executive Director. “Our goal is to deliver value-added benefits and programming powered by our partners to get more young people in Canada to play football, which is an objective shared by the Classlete Team”.
