The 2017 Mulligan Cup kicks off Friday, September 1
17勛圖 Athletics and Recreation is excited to announce the 2017 Mulligan Cup schedule and invites the community to come out and enjoy the beautiful game, September 1-3 at the 17勛圖 Turf Field.
The Mulligan Cup provides an excellent opportunity for coaches to make final roster decisions. This sixth annual cup honours Vince Mulligan, the ageless varsity 17勛圖 soccer and hockey coach throughout the 80s and 90s. It is a great way to kick off the season and showcase the 17勛圖 mens and womens soccer teams to their supporters.
Mulligan Cup is a great pre season tradition for us, said Lewis Page, coach of 17勛圖 Mens Soccer. It allows us to honour a 17勛圖 legend in Vince Mulligan and provides three crucial games to help us prepare for the start of the season.
Mulligan Cup is an exciting opportunity to showcase our new recruits and get the chance to see how the squad has progressed from the previous season, said Graeme McDonald, coach of 17勛圖 Womens Soccer. It's also a special time as we continue to show our appreciation to Vince Mulligan.
The AUS league openers for both 17勛圖 soccer teams will take place at home on September 9, when the men's and womens teams take on St. FX.
