JIM MOSS BONSPIEL
FUNDRAISER, March 27th
Councillor John Sanderson, Ziggy
Musial, Dean McLeod, Jim Moss, Wendy Bennett-Costante,
Reg Ewles and Tony Bennett.
Background: Jim
Moss played his entire minor Lacrosse and Hockey
in Brampton. As a member of the 1992 Brampton Capitals,
they won the Jr A Tier ll Ontario Championship.
Playing Lacrosse with the Jr A Excelsiors, they
were Minto Cup finalist in 1994, and in 2002 with
the Major Excelsiors Mann Cup winners. Jim is also
a member of Brampton’s Sports Hall of Fame and the
Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame.
Jim was stricken
with Gillian Barre Syndrome in September 2009. This
left Jim with paralysis of his legs and loss of
sensation in his hands and feet. Jim is now convalescing
at home and is expected to get 90-100% recovery
over the next 1-2 years. Jim is married with two
young children; his daughter Olivia being born two
months after the onset of his illness. With Jim's
wife Jennifer on reduced income from maternity leave,
Jim on reduced income with long term disability,
the loss of his professional Lacrosse playing salary
and combined medical bills tallying $75-$100,000.00
it was decided to hold the Jim Moss Bonspiel Fundraiser.
Players and teams from the OHL, NHL and NLL generously
donated items for auction.
Being forced to now retire from professional sports,
Jim’s goal is to further his education and become
a life coach. In this capacity he will help those
whose circumstances leave them in need of help to
change the direction of their lives. He also plans
to publicly speak in schools, work with youth and
empower them with tools to set and achieve life
goals. Jim and family, although presently living
in San Jose, California, have plans to return to
Ontario when his illness allows and work becomes
available. If you wish to contribute to this worthwhile
fundraiser, contact Ziggy at President@excelsiors.com
