Law Enforcement Charity Hockey Challenge

Law Enforcement Charity Hockey Challenge This event is a children's charity fundraiser benefit. The tournament will be played in Merritt, BC, Canada at two local facilities. Stay tuned for more info.

A hockey weekend in Merritt, British Columbia played by members of Canadian Law Enforcement agencies and supporters in order to raise money for the BC Children's Hospital charity. Our goal is to raise as much profit as possible in order for it to be divided equally among our applicable Children's Charities. This event will consist of a 16 team hockey tournament, played over Fri Feb 28th, Sat Mar 1

and Sun Mar 2, 2014. Upon conclusion of play on Friday, a dinner style banquet and dance will take place at the local civic building. Banquet will consist of a meal (included in team entry fee), a dance and a silent auction that will feature amazing donated prizes. There will also be a 50/50 draw and door prizes. The event will be licensed with liquor being sold by ticketed price. There will be guest speakers present (yet to be finalized). At the conclusion of play on Saturday, players are invited to attend a BC Junior Hockey League game between the hometown Merritt Centennials and the visiting Vernon Vipers. (Tickets will be included in Team Registration fee)

Tournament prizes are still being determined. The goal of this event is to raise as much money as possible for children. Rules and regulations will be posted as to requirements that must be met in order to play in the tournament. (Competitive and Rec pools will have different rules.) This tournament is open to badge carrying law enforcement agencies across Canada and the US. Both facilities will be open to the Public which we encourage to attend and support. Donations will be accepted at the door and online upon account set up. Brandon Buliziuk

We are trying to set up a small draft tournament this year as we already had the ice reserved. We are currently looking for more players ☺️ If we have to go down to five teams, we will skip the Friday night games and only run games on Saturday and Sunday..... Please reach out if you have any questions or want to join!

Hi everyone! We have had a few people ask if we are going to be starting up the tournament again this year. Right now we are still in limbo as due to the flooding situation that occurred in Merritt last year there are no hotel rooms that would be available to provide accommodation to any of the teams and players that would be attending. We are hopeful that this situation will be improved soon and we will keep everyone updated! Thanks for your support!

Hi everyone! Just a happy update! We were able to make our goal of raising enough money over the event so that we are able to donate $25, 000 this year to BC Children's Hospital! Unfortunately, the Miracle Weekend that we would usually present the donation at has been cancelled but we did get an official message today from the foundation.

I would like to thank again everyone who helped make out event a success! Hopefully we will see you all next year!

Law enforcement officers, protective services officials and first responders from all across the province, descended on Merritt this past weekend (Feb. 21-23) to compete head to head in the 7th annual Law Enforcement Charity Hockey Challenge, a charity hockey fundraising event to benefit the BC Chil...

Emergency first responders took to the ice inside the Nicola Valley Memorial Arena in Merritt over the weekend, where shootouts, overtime, and shift work was all part of raising much needed funds. An estimated 175 hockey players on 14 teams, mainly consisting of frontline first responders, geared up to raise money for sick kids.

A dedicated planning team comprised of law enforcement officers from the Merritt RCMP Detachment, RCMP Central Interior Traffic Services (CITS - Merritt), RCMP Southeast District Major Crime and even Whitehorse RCMP along with their friends, family and local community members worked tirelessly to pull together this year’s charity competition. Since its inception this annual fundraising initiative is responsible for raising over $100,000 to support children and families who rely on the BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver.

The South Okanagan RCMP team took the top spot during this year’s Law Enforcement Charity Hockey Challenge, however the real winners were kids across the province.
