We are long overdue for this and we sincerely apologize. In March we hosted our now annual Hoop Dreams ball hockey tournament fundraiser and this year we added a twist. We made the tournament a random drawn team style event where names were drawn out of a hat to create teams. This ended up being a huge success and a ton of fun. We’re proud to annouce that we raised $800 from this event towards Hoop Dreams this year. The winners of the 2nd annual Hoop Dreams ball hockey tournament fundraiser are…….

Hoop Dreams is Saint John’s most exciting 3 on 3 youth basketball tournament open to all players ages 8 – 18 in support of the Children’s Wish Foundation. We are back for the third installment of Hoop Dreams on Saturday September 15^th, 2018 at Exhibition Park. In September 2017 – 37 teams brought their hearts to the court and battled it out to be crowned a Hoop Dreams champion all while raising funds for a very worthy cause. We crowned 6 championship teams and raised an astonishing $5828.34 in support of the Children’s Wish Foundation.

Executing a major shift to an outdoor event and expanding our facilities in our new home of Exhibition Park, Hoop Dreams set the bar for the family friendly fundraising event with a highly entertaining day full of exciting action and entertainment for everyone even if you aren’t competiting. We are also introduced our top fundraising team challenge where each team reached out to their community to raise additional funds for the Children’s Wish Foundation. Our mission to encourage children in the community to help others was inspired by this fundraising challenge and proved to be a phenomenal success.
