Submissions can be shot from smart phones or home video cameras and should focus on team spirit, rather than video production. Parents and coaches are encouraged to enter the contest for youth team, available to children aged 7-12, from any team at any level.
Each entrant will receive a special offer to open a BMO kid's account.

In September, one team will win a grand prize of a trip for all players and coaches to attend an MLS game.
