The Genting Casino Coventry Blaze will face the Fife Flyers at Skydome Arena on Remembrance Sunday, 9th November (5.30pm).
In honour of those who made the ultimate sacrifice, the Blaze players will wear special Remembrance jerseys, designed by Five-on-3, paying tribute to the Royal Air Force (RAF) pilots who fought and won the Battle of Britain, defending the UK against the German Luftwaffe.
The jersey features a quote by Winston Churchill from 1940, highlighting the crucial and pivotal role of the outnumbered RAF pilots in protecting the nation during a time of great peril.
Fans will have the opportunity to own the game-worn jersey of their favourite player for £175, available from 6pm on Monday 3rd November via our online store.
Jerseys can be collected from the FanHub after the Remembrance game.
- #20 Mat Robson’s jersey will be the RH Elite Services Shirt off the Back raffle prize on match night.
- #23 Colton Saucerman’s jersey will be the online Booster Club Raffle prize in the run-up to the game.
- All other player jerseys will be available for purchase via our online store.
After previously supporting Army and Navy charity initiatives, the Blaze have this year chosen to make a donation of profits from sales to the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund.
The Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund is the RAF’s leading welfare charity, providing lifelong support to serving personnel, veterans, and their families. From financial assistance and emotional wellbeing services to housing support and care for older veterans, the Fund is dedicated to repaying the debt of gratitude owed to those who have served and continue to serve in the Royal Air Force.
William Grover from the RAF Benevolent Fund, commented: “We are extremely grateful to The Genting Casino Coventry Blaze team for generously donating a profit of their sales to the Fund, which will help us to continue our vital work to support to the RAF Family.”
