A playful competition between the Penticton Vees and the West 麻豆精选 Warriors has raised money for cancer.

Warriors owner, Kim Dobranski wagered with Penticton Vee鈥檚 fan Jon Race that if he could raise over $500 to be donated to the Cassidy Bowes Cancer fund, he would cut his hair.

After raising $505 on the gofundme page, Dobranski won the scissors to give Race the hair cut himself at the Vee鈥檚 home game against the Warriors Dec. 21.
