Our WMHA teams together with nearly 2,000 young hockey players from across our region, the tournament raised an astounding $534,984 to support the Hospice of Windsor and Essex County.


This is an outstanding achievement and a wonderful example of community effort for a great cause.

Club 240
Founded by the late Jimmy Hogan, inductee into the Windsor-Essex County Sports Hall of Fame in 1999. Club 240 had its beginnings in 1960, when Jimmy’s kids started playing outdoor hockey at Memorial Park. At that time the only league operating indoors was Midget; the outdoor season was limited to only 7 or 8 games, as the city didn’t allow teams to go beyond the league into the Ontario Minor Hockey Association playdowns (OMHA).
