“She definitely likes kicking the ball around,” he said. “We have a lot of soccer balls here in the house. And we have a little soccer net in our backyard.”
Michigan-based entrepreneur Mark Mitchell became majority owner of the new Northern Super League franchise earlier this week.
The club’s founding partners, who had ties to North Toronto Soccer Club, were Helena Ruken, Brenda Ha and husband Kamal Sandhu, Jill Burgin, Mike Ruthard, Billy Wilson and Shamez Mangalji.
Ruken is now the club’s CEO while Wilson is the club’s sporting director and Sandhu COO.
Some 30 others, including De Grasse and tennis star Milos Raonic, have since invested. All are still involved in the franchise.
“I left them all in. I think it’s good for the community, I think it’s great for the team,” said Mitchell, who also plans to take in Saturday’s home opener.
