WINNIPEG — Canadian rockers The Trews have been tapped to headline this summer’s MTS Super-Spike volleyball tournament.
The weekend-long event is July 17-18 at Maple Grove Rugby Park in south Winnipeg and will mark its 14th year.
Along with The Trews, MTS Super-Spike will feature a dozen live bands at the festival including Moses Mayes & the Family Funk Orchestra, The Treble, The New Meanies, The Revival, The F-Holes, Mise en Scene and others.
Besides fun in the sand with great live music, the event is also a fundraiser for the Winnipeg-based National Women’s Volleyball Team and has raised more than $800,000 to date.
Early bird team registration is $45 per person until June 5. All MTS Super-Spike tournament participants receive free access for the concert series and on-site festivities.
This year’s goal is to register 500 teams and raise more than $125,000.
