Calgary Colts kicker is making a difference

Kyle Byrne of the Calgary Colts is heading into his second year in the Canadian Junior Football League, more importantly he’s breaking ground in Canada with “Kick It Champion.”

He wants to give back to the community and specifically help to find a cure for children with cancer.

He talks with Ryan Watters below about his efforts, but first here is his story and a link to DONATE.

“This season I will be kicking to help cure children's cancer. I am going into my second year as the Kicker and punter for the Canadian Junior Football League’s Calgary Colts. I began to play football in grade ten when I moved to Canada from Dublin, Ireland. Ever since I put those pads on for the first time I have had an unconditional love for the sport and kicking. I am supporting this cause because I truly believe no child should ever have to go through such a terrible sickness. The money raised will go be distributed by the Children's Oncology group to the kids cancer facilities to help the kids and for the advancement of research.”

Together we can help Kyle reach his goal of $2,015 and help some amazing kids kick it to cancer.
