After the inaugural event in 2014, Tka’s Eternal Life Ball Hockey Tournament is back! Register by July 10th for this year’s tournament to be held in Surrey from August 28^th – August 30^th at Unwin Park.

This year’s tournament is anticipating over 20 teams, with over 150 players and over 40 volunteers. Teams from all regions of British Columbia and Alberta are welcome to participate.

The tournament is celebrating the life of Taranveer (Tka) Dhillon, who had a love for sports especially hockey. He was known to play on a few adult teams while he lived in Surrey. One of his biggest passions was watching children flourish with confidence and doing what they love.

“Tka was full of spirit and lived his life with excitement and passion,” says Manpreet Dhillon, Chair of the Tka’s Eternal Life Society and Tka’s sister. “We’re excited to bring a ball hockey tournament to Surrey – a sport Tka loved. It’s the best way to bring the community together and celebrate his life.”
