Ladies and Gentlemen:
As counsel for Ambassador Funds, a Delaware business trust (the
"Trust"), we have examined the proceedings taken and being taken for the
registration by the Trust on Form N-1A of an indefinite number of shares of
beneficial interest, no par value per share. We have examined all instruments,
documents and records which, in our opinion, were necessary of examination for
the purpose of rendering this opinion. Based upon such examination, we are of
the opinion that the above-described shares of beneficial interest will be, if
and when issued by the Trust in the manner and upon the terms set forth in said
Form N-1A, validly authorized and issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Trust's Registration Statement on Form N-1A, as it may be amended.
Sincerely,
/s/ Dykema Gossett PLLC
