Sports celebs tee off for at-risk youth

Hockey season is over and it's time to hit the links.
Mississauga hockey hero Cheryl Pounder will be among the first to tee it up this Monday at an event that supports at-risk youth.
Canadian pro golfers David Hearn and Alena Sharp will join Pounder, a two-time Olympic gold medalist with Canada's women's hockey team, for a benefit golf clinic and tournament at the Rattlesnake Point Golf Club in Milton.
The 2008 RBC Insurance Charity Golf Classic supports the Peel Children's Aid Foundation. Last year's tournament raised $100,000 for a new medical clinic to treat children under the supervision of PCA.
Joining Pounder at the golf event will be fellow hockey Olympians Jennifer Botterill, Jayna Hefford, and Becky Kellar.
