Exciting news for the Guelph Ringette Association members!

We are bringing back the most liked Facebook challenge for the 2017 Annual Guelph Ringette tournament. One lucky(and Facebook friendly) GRA member can win next years membership fee and all it will take is a lot of Facebook friends and a little luck. 

The GRA is looking to make a big splash in Social Media during the upcoming annual ringette tournament.  We want you to Facebook, Tweet, Share with all of your friends and help us promote the great game of ringette and our organization. 

We will be posting game times for all teams and the team that receives the Most Likes will be featured on the GRA website with the caption "Most Liked Guelph Predators Team". Last year it was the U12R Tosh team that was the most like Guelph Predator team on Facebook. This year it may be your team.

The GRA Executive has decided to make it easier for you to win a free membership for next season by dropping the number of average Likes to 100 for each player on their team. That's right, if your team receives an average of more than only 100 Likes per player for posts of your games, you will be put in a draw to receive a free membership for next year.

Here is how it is going to work.

2 Hours before each game of the round robin (max 4 games), a game posted will be put on Facebook along with your team's sponsor link. For teams not playing or teams that don't have 4 games, we will add special posts to our Facebook page. 

You will need to get all of your friends to Like the GRA post of your game. The number of Likes on the 4 GRA posts (including shares) will be counted for your team. If the team can get an average of 100 Likes for each player over the 4 posts, all players on the team will be put into a draw to win next year's membership fee.

If your team receives the most Like on your 4 post, you will be the "Most Liked Guelph Predator Team"

The challenge will be over at 8:00PM on Sunday when the Likes will be counted and the Most Liked Guelph Predators Team will be announced.

Here's how you can get more Likes for your team.
