Spitfires’ Woodall donates over $12,700 to cancer research through “Woody’s Hoodies” initiative

WINDSOR, ONT. – The Windsor Spitfires are proud to acknowledge #24 Carson Woodall and his Woody’s Hoodies campaign for raising $12,720 for cancer research in the Windsor community in just one month since launch.

Carson made the announcement at the 2024 Play for a Cure game where he and a few friends took part in the skills competition.

In honor of both of his grandmothers, the 17-year-old defenceman from Belle River, Ont.  launched Woody’s Hoodies back in March. With every hoodie purchase, 24% of the proceeds are directed towards local cancer research programs in the Windsor-Essex area through partnerships with Play For a Cure Pro-Am and the Windsor Spitfires organization.

These hoodies feature a custom ribbon designed by Woodall, combining symbols representing breast cancer and ovarian cancer. This ribbon is prominently displayed on the right sleeve, symbolizing unity and support during handshake lineups at hockey games.
