Meet our
player ambassadors

Our four CFL ambassadors are not only leaders on the field—they’re also proud parents, role models, and advocates for the power of education.

Tré Ford

Tré Ford

Quarterback, Edmonton Elks

Tre Ford is a dynamic Canadian quarterback known for his athleticism and dual-threat capabilities. A standout at the University of Waterloo, Ford won the prestigious Hec Crighton Trophy in 2021 as the top player in U Sports football. Drafted by the Edmonton Elks in the 2022 CFL Draft, he joined a relatively short list of Canadian QBs that have started and won games in the CFL, and did so by bringing speed, poise, and excitement to the Elks’ offence.

DaVaris Daniels

DaVaris Daniels

Wide Receiver, Toronto Argonauts

DaVaris Daniels is an American receiver with elite route-running skills and big-play ability. A former Notre Dame standout, Daniels joined the CFL in 2016 and quickly made an impact, earning the CFL’s Most Outstanding Rookie award with the Calgary Stampeders. He later played for the Edmonton Elks and now the Toronto Argonauts, winning two Grey Cups to go with the one he won as a Stampeder.

Bo Levi Mitchell

Bo Levi Mitchell

Quarterback, Hamilton Tiger-Cats

Bo Levi Mitchell is one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in CFL history. After a stellar college career at Eastern Washington, he joined the Calgary Stampeders in 2012 and went on to become a two-time Grey Cup champion and CFL Most Outstanding Player (2016, 2018). Known for his strong arm, leadership, and football IQ, Mitchell ranks among the league’s all-time greats and continues to be a prominent figure in Canadian football.

Sean Whyte

Sean Whyte

Kicker, BC Lions

Sean Whyte is a seasoned Canadian placekicker with a long and reliable CFL career. Since entering the league in 2009, Whyte has played for multiple teams including the BC Lions, Montreal Alouettes, and Edmonton Elks, winning the Grey Cup with Edmonton in 2015.
