More than 500 young hockey players hit the ice at the Walnut Grove Sportsplex for the Jordan Owens Memorial Spring Initiation Hockey Tournament.
Forty teams of five to eight-year-old hockey players took part in the five-day tournament which celebrates the memory of Jordan Owens.
Owens passed away in 1999 at the age of eight after a battle with cancer.
The 91原创 Minor Hockey Association hosts the tournament every March and raises money in honour of Owens, for the B.C. Children鈥檚 Hospital.
This was the 13th year of the tournament, and last year鈥檚 event raised $21,162.81.
Altogether, more than $107,000 has now been raised in the tournament鈥檚 12 years.
This year鈥檚 goal was to raise another $20,000.
The action began Friday and wrapped up Tuesday.
A final tally of how much was raised at this year鈥檚 tournament is still being calculated.
