Some exclusive fantasy sports packages are among the auction items that will be available on January 9th, 2016 at the 14th annual Baseball Canada National Teams Awards Banquet and Fundraiser in Toronto. The auction is an important fundraiser for the National Teams program.

The ever-popular Ryan Dempster Fantasy Baseball Package returns to the auction list that will see a group of four attend a three-game series at Wrigley Field in Chicago where they will receive scoreboard and broadcast both tours with Ryan himself, while also taking in batting practice on the field! Ryan will also join the group for lunch and dinner that is sure to be a treat with one of the finest personalities in baseball!

In December, Baseball Canada announced that 2014 Super Bowl Champion and Junior National Team alumnus Luke Willson of the Seattle Seahawks is offering a unique experience for a group of four to attend a 2016 regular season game.

Baseball Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar is back with a fantastic experience for a group of four to attend a Blue Jays game at Rogers Centre in Toronto, while also spending time with one of the greatest Blue Jays ever!
