FLINT -- The Flint Police and Fire departments are used to working together as a team, but, this Saturday the two groups will put their working relationships aside.

The fourth Battle of the Badges will take place Saturday, February 9 at 4:30p.m. at Perani Arena in Flint.

Battle of the Badges is a benefit ice hockey game pitting the Flint police and fire departments against each other.

After the Battle of the Badges you can catch the Michigan Warrior's game immediately after.

Ticket prices are $7 per adult and $4 for kids 10 and under.

Money raised through ticket sales will go to the Hurley Medical Center's Regional Burn Unit which benefits burn victims and first responders who have been hurt in a fire.

Event organizer and Flint firefigher, Rico Phillips says you won't want to miss it. He says the firefighters and police are no strangers to the ice.
