A Hamilton Bulldogs game is an exciting and affordable school outing, and a fantastic way to build school spirit! The Bulldogs have a proud tradition of welcoming schools from around Hamilton, Halton and Niagara and have helped countless school groups to meet their fundraising needs as well!

School Spirit Nights

The simplest way to have your school take advantage of the Bulldogs experience is to organize a School Spirit Night. With tickets available at the special Fundraising price, your group can resell the tickets to your school community at a small mark-up, offering unbeatable value to families and friends and a great opportunity for your school to raise money for special events, trips, spring flings and graduations! With flexible payment options and friendly staff, we can make this not only fun but easy too!

2009-10 School Fundraising Rates

National Anthem Program - sponsored by Tim Hortons

Bringing your school choir to sing one of the national anthems at a Bulldogs home game is an experience your students will never forget! With tickets available at the special Fundraising price, the whole school community can come out to cheer on your singers, and everyone can enjoy an exciting night together while you raise funds to support your school at the same time! With 20 complimentary tickets available for choir members and a special t-shirt for them to sing in and keep, it's never been easier to give your choir an unforgettable experience!

Bands In The Stands *NEW THIS YEAR*

The "Bands in the Stands" program is geared towards giving Secondary School bands an opportunity to play before a fantastic crowd at a Bulldogs home game! Schools will perform one or two up-tempo numbers during one of the intermissions from the stands of Copps Coliseum, and with tickets available at the fantastic Fundraising price, the entire school community can be there to cheer them on and enjoy a great night of Bulldogs hockey fun!

Program Sales

Hundreds of schools throughout the region have met their fundraising needs and had a great time doing it with our Program Sales spots! Sell tickets to your entire school community at the special Fundraising rate and earn the opportunity to sell Game Day Programs at the game! The more tickets you sell, the more profit your group will keep from each program sold. Together with the profit from ticket sales, it's a fantastic way to raise some money and have a great time doing it! (groups must provide a small float and 10-12 volunteers)

*groups that cannot sell 50 tickets will be given the option of booking an alternate date, subject to availbiltiy  

Chuck-A-Puck

A great way to put the fun back in fundraising is by running our "Chuck-A-Puck" contest! Sell tickets at the special Fundraising rate and earn the chance to man the Chuck-a-Puck table at the game! Fans buy pucks for $2, or 3 for $5, and at a designated time will get to throw them on the ice - whoever gets their puck closest to center ice will win a prize (which we provide). All you'll need is a small float, 2-3 volunteers and a couple of pens, and your school keeps all the proceeds (minus a small charge per puck to cover replacement costs). And with your whole school community there to support you, you're sure to do well and have a great time doing it!

50/50 Draws

One of our most popular fundraisers, a limited number of 50/50 draws may be available through the school year. They aren't a small undertaking, but the potential is great for organized, committed groups. Sell game tickets to your entire school community at the special Fundraising prices and bring a small army of volunteers to sell tickets for the 50/50 draw! Whoever wins the draw, half of the money is yours! Groups are responsible for securing the license, ordering the tickets and bringing a float, but it can be a fantastic way to raise money for trips, events, graduation and equipment, and a great way to work together to build spirit and community.

The Bulldogs can help your 50/50 Group raise even more by offering special fundraising rates on Game Day tickets!

To contact the Hamilton Bulldogs for tickets, please call 905-529-8500.

Please note: Combining inventory generally means combining ticket sales goals as well. A group doing both Program Sales and Chuck-a-Puck, for example, would need to sell over 100 tickets to get the lower per ticket rate. We want to work with you to help your group succeed. Call for more information.
