African Canadian Youth Sports Network was incorporated on February 5, 2021. In 2016, Ghana Association of Hamilton collaborated with Empowerment squared to launch African Cup of Nations Hamilton, a two-day soccer tournament that was played at the Tim Hortons field by 4 African nations. The Goal of the tournament was to bring the people of African descent in Hamilton together through sports. The tournament was successful and the organizers decided to run this tournament every year.

Good day all,

I want to thank you all for participating in the tournament last Saturday. The organizers are grateful for this community initiative and for your support. We hope to have you in even bigger numbers next year. We hope everyone got back home safely.

We still have the finals to play between DR Congo and Somalia next Saturday Aug 26, 2023 at the Tim Hortons stadium. We will like everyone and their community to come out and enjoy the game and activities that day.

We know there were some positives and negatives to take from last Saturday'sevent. We have to evaluate those thoughts and suggestions to be able to make next year's edition better. We think you as the team managers will be in a better position to provide us with that feedback. So please respond with both the good and the bad from last Saturday's tournament.

Thank you and stay tuned. See you all next Saturday. Please send in your team pictures if you have not done so.

Cheers.
