Beyak donates shirts to soccer club

Beyak Automotive Group has partnered with Fort Frances Youth Soccer, to keep everyone playing in style for the 2022 Season. Beyak Automotive Group has purchased moisture wicking, sport performance t-shirts for each player and volunteer.

“It is exciting to see that registration numbers for 2022 have almost doubled from what the club saw in the 2019 season,” stated a press release from Beyak Automotive. As a result, the overall donation for t-shirts will exceed $6,000.

“By teaching discipline, team work, and respect, Fort Frances Youth Soccer has a long history of providing substantial benefits to the children in our community. I am proud to contribute to a program that brings joy to kids and to their parents and grandparents. Our organization is grateful to partner with yet another strong community organization comprised of selfless and dedicated volunteers,” said Beyak Automotive Group President, Nick Beyak.

After a hiatus due to the pandemic, the club got back up and running early in 2022. With a new volunteer board and limited funds, the Beyak Automotive Group wanted to make a significant donation to keep registration costs low for families and to help ensure a bright financial future for the program.

Fort Frances Youth Soccer President, Alison Dresen, adds, “Fort Frances Youth Soccer is very grateful for the support of the Beyak Automotive Group to purchase soccer jerseys for 2022. After a two-year hiatus, this generous donation has assisted our group in bringing more than just soccer back to Fort Frances. It has also provided opportunities for community partnerships, purchasing local, and affordable activities for our kids.”

The Beyak Automotive Group is pleased to have purchased the shirts from Baker Graphics in Fort Frances, which is locally owned and operated. At the end of the season, each player and volunteer will keep their shirt as a reminder of the fun they had playing soccer this year.
