Tink Memorial Cup

On April 17th, 2015 the world lost one incredible man, Toni J Marciniak. After moving to Canada from Manchester, England, Toni made Powell River his home.

Working in the school district as a teacher and counselor for 27 years, he quickly became a huge part of this community. His involvement with the youth of Powell River has had a huge impact on many people’s lives over the years. His door was always open for anyone who needed to talk and he was there to listen, day or night. Toni was highly involved with the Powell River Youth Soccer Association fo

r many years. He was a mentor, coach, division manager, referee, and pioneer for starting the mini girl’s soccer league in Powell River. In his spare time Toni was an avid hiker, kayaker, golfer and outdoors enthusiast and was always looking for a new adventure. Although Toni is gone, the impact he made on this community and his love for the game of soccer will not be forgotten. This tournament is dedicated to his life, legacy, and to all the people his life touched. On May 7th and 8th, 2016 the first annual Tink Memorial Cup kicked off for its first time. This mixed 7-aside tournament is for all who want to participate and support the legacy of a man who proudly shared his love of the beautiful game of soccer with everyone. Toni knew first-hand how difficult it can be for some students facing adversity to earn their high school diploma and pursue their post-secondary goals. The Toni Marciniak Memorial Scholarship was created to assist a student who is overcoming adversity and intends on attending a post-secondary institution to further their education. All proceeds from this tournament are contributed to the Toni Marciniak Scholarship or allocated back into the community through SD47 for student programs and students in need. In loving memory of Antoni J Marciniak

⛳️ TEE TIMES ARE HERE! ⛳️

Please take a moment to find your team and tee time, and plan to arrive early enough to check in, collect your cart keys, and be ready to tee off at your scheduled time.

🌎 World Cup Theme Reminder:
This year’s theme is the World Cup, and we can’t wait to see teams representing countries from around the globe. Soccer jerseys, flags, flag colours, and team spirit are welcome!

A reminder that while friendly competition is encouraged, respect is expected. Please represent your chosen country thoughtfully—cultural appropriation, stereotypes, or mocking of cultures will not be tolerated.

We can’t wait to see everyone out at Myrtle Point for another great day of golf, laughs, and remembering Tink. ❤️

See you on the course! ⚽️🏌️‍♂️☀️

Save the date!! 📅 Sunday, June 21, 2026

Sorry for the delay and the radio silence—life has been very busy for the three of us! Registration is coming together and will be out later today or tomorrow.

The format for the Tink will be our regular 9-hole scramble, but this year we’re adding a twist 👀 Stay tuned for more info (you’ll see it in the registration!).

When you go to register your team, you’ll also notice that we’re simplifying the tournament a bit this year to better balance everything else going on in our lives. As a result, meals won’t be included in registration. The kitchen will still be open for all your food and beverage needs—potentially with a slightly limited menu to help manage the larger group.

We’ll also have prizes for Closest to the Pin and Longest Drive, along with a raffle table. To keep things manageable this year, the raffle will be a bit more condensed—but still worth checking out!

Okay that is all for now! Looking forward to a fun Father’s Day with you all again!!

Emails have been sent to all team captains as well regarding this change (if I had your emails), if you haven’t received them, check your junk mail folder!

Thank you for your understanding! Looking forward to seeing you all Sunday!

2025 marks the 10 year anniversary of Toni’s passing, this year we are hosting the Tink Cup on a very special day, Father’s Day Sunday, June 15, 2025. In honour of the tournament being on Sunday and the Red’s (Manchester United) being Toni’s favourite team, we invite everyone to wear their best Sunday red this year as Toni and Tiger would.

See you all out there!

Well the time has come… to disappoint everyone who thought we were finally going to be hosting a soccer tournament this year… but golf is on the agenda once again!!

All jokes aside, we wish we could deliver the hopes and dreams of drinking a cold b**r from the sidelines while you watch teams battle it out for glory.. but the task of organizing and hosting the soccer tournament just isn’t feasible with our (all three Marciniak’s) life schedules at the moment.

I would like to take a moment though to reflect on the fact that 2025 marks 10 years without Toni, the man we honour every year we host this tournament. 10 years. A decade. In this time we have grown in our lives, grown from our grief, and grown as a community. While the scenery may have changed in recent years from a soccer pitch to the greens of Myrtle Point, the founding mentality for this tournament has not wavered. Every year you choose to support this tournament, whether it is on the field or at the course, we appreciate your presence immensely. You have uplifted our spirits year after year when we come together to remember a very important and special man.

That being said, this year we will be hosting the Tink Cup on Sunday, June 15, 2025. Fathers Day. We know this isn’t the big Saturday to do we normally have, but it is a special day non the less, and we hope you will join us on the third Sunday in June in honour of our dad.

Registration will be out at the end of April! So this should give everyone some time to start thinking about their teams for this year!

Looking forward to seeing you all on the links again soon!

Good morning everyone! Are we all ready for a day on the course?

When you arrive at the course, please check in at the raffle table area where we will give you your score cards and food & drink vouchers. Please arrive at the course with adequate time to get organized, visit and prepare to tee off at your scheduled time!

Standard housekeeping notes:

Please be respectful of the course, the carts, myrtle point employees, volunteers etc. We are guests and we want to make sure we are all respecting their facilities

Drinking and driving, as always, is a no go! please arrange a safe ride ahead of time if you think you will be needing one

Included in your tournament fees is a meal and beverage! The Orca Bar and Grill at Myrtle Point is preparing a chicken burger, beef burger, and veggie burger option on their new grill, with your choice of fries or salad. Gluten free and regular buns will be available for anyone with dietary restrictions. The kitchen will also be open for breakfast this morning, if you have an earlier tee time. I am told there will also be mimosas available!

You can choose to have your meal at any point throughout the day, either before or after your round, but the course has asked that we have a 5:30pm cut off for food service to avoid putting pressure on the kitchen to stay open later. We have been assured the bar will remain open after food service has ended. There will be a bar set up on the patio for quicker access to beverages. The course is running low on take out coolers and there will be a lot of us out there today! If you want to keep your beverages cool and have a small soft cooler for your cart it is recommended you bring it and course will supply you with ice and beverages for your round! The food/beverage cart will also be out and about today!

Raffle tables will be locked and loaded! Tickets are 5 for $10, or 1 ticket for 3$ . There are no ATM’s at the course so please plan accordingly, we do have the option to send an E-transfer to purchase tickets, but we do not have a debit or credit option at this time!

The sun is up and we are looking forward to a great day!
See you all soon!
