Hockey Hits Cancer
Held March 21-23, 2025
Meaford & St. Vincent Community Centre
The much-anticipated Hockey Hits Cancer Tournament held March 21-23, 2025 in Meaford was a resounding success! Over 20 teams participated to raise funds for the Meaford Hospital Foundation. This year’s event raised over $10,000 for the palliative care room at the Meaford Hospital, allowing patients and families to receive compassionate care in a comfortable and dignified setting.
Tournament organizer, Mackenzie Fleming, created this event in memory of his Grandparents Anne and Alex Fleming, two extraordinary people who left a mark on their grandchildren, children and the Meaford community. In the 10 years of running this event, Hockey Hits Cancer has successfully raised more than $70,000 for local charities.
This year’s tournament was the most successful one yet, with an outpouring of community support. Thank you to everyone who played in the Tournament and to everyone who came out to watch and cheer on the players and who purchased raffle tickets, West Jet Gift of Flight Tickets and 50/50 tickets! Without your support this wouldn’t have been such a huge success!
