NAHL announces winners of Movember campaign
The North American Hockey League (NAHL) Movember campaign for 2013 has come to an end. It was a fun month of league-wide participation from all the NAHL clubs and it was all about bringing back the mustache, having fun and doing it for a serious cause; men's health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer initiatives.
For the second straight season, the NAHL and its member clubs were a part of Movember involving all 24 teams and the over 550+ players in the league. The players in the NAHL started November 1st clean-shaven and for the rest of the month, these players grew their facial hair to support the Movember campaign. The mustaches that were grown were a sight to behold.
It was a legendary month for the mo’s (players), and the NAHL is pleased to announce the winners of the NAHL’s Movember campaign.
In the team category, it was a two horse race at the end as the Wichita Falls Wildcats and the Johnstown Tomahawks were in a race to the finish to see which team could raise the most funds.
