phantoms fastball bingo program
Welcome to another year of Phantoms Fastball Bingos! Bingos are a great way to offset your ball expenses for the year while also benefiting the Phantoms Zone. The funds generated help us provide additional turf times, discounted clinics, and team equipment.
How It Works
Each player paid a $50 bingo deposit with their registration fee. To receive this deposit back, families must work at least one bingo. Once completed, the deposit will be returned to the player’s team account at the end of the season when Bingo funds are distributed.
For each bingo shift worked, the player earns a $100 credit towards eligible expenses. Opportunities to work multiple bingos will be available throughout the season, running through July.
We will continue using Signup Genius for bingo sign-ups. The link will be available at all times for easy access.

All Bingos take place at City Centre Bingo (310 22nd Street West).
