The pickleball challenge will be a day filled with fun and friendly competition, all for a great cause. Teams from local businesses and organizations are invited to sponsor in order to participate in the tournament, which aims to raise funds for the programs and services provided by The Outreach Centre and the Hockey Alberta Foundation.
The Outreach Centre serves individuals and families in central Alberta, supporting them in their pursuit of healthy relationships, mental health wellbeing, housing stability and self-sufficiency. The Hockey Alberta Foundation raises funds to foster and support access to youth hockey in Alberta, with a goal of ensuring that every child throughout Alberta has the opportunity to play hockey.
