VANCOUVER, B.C. – Hockey fans can ring in the New Year by bidding on exclusive Team Canada game-worn jerseys, gloves and helmets from the 2019 IIHF World Junior Championship in Vancouver, B.C.

The Hockey Canada Foundation preserves, nurtures, and strengthens the bond between Canadians and hockey, and fans can help support that mission by joining in on the eBay.ca auction starting at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on Wednesday, Jan. 2, until it closes on Monday, Jan. 7.

“Our love and passion for hockey unites all Canadians and this online auction gives fans a chance to bid on some one-of-a-kind items,” said Doug Goss, chair of the Hockey Canada Foundation. “While fans are adding to their collection, they’re also making a difference by supporting the development and promotion of grassroots hockey and ensuring those who want to play the game are able to participate at any level in their community.”

Shipment of the items to the winning bidders will begin the week of Jan. 28, 2019, for paid items.
