The Hockey for Hospice tournament is back this year.
This year's tournament will feature 227 games played at four different arenas over three days.
“Each year so many members of our community look forward to this event, and we are thrilled to be back once again,” said Nancy Brockenshire, Executive Director of The Hospice. “It’s amazing to see the excitement and the commitment in these young players. Not only do they have fun, raise pledges, and learn about The Hospice, they’re teaching their families, friends and neighbours about Hospice programs and our vision of delivering memorable care. They are wonderful ambassadors and true Hospice Champions.”
Over the last 25 years, the tournament has raised more than $4.1 million for the local hospice. Each player collects pledges to participate in the tournament.
Games will be played at Libro Credit Union Centre in Amherstburg, Essex Centre Sports Complex in Essex, Vollmer Culture and Recreation Complex in LaSalle, and Tecumseh Arena in Tecumseh. A full schedule can be found here.
