Game On: Chinatown's 1st Street Hockey Tournament | Aug 8, 2010 | 500 Block Carrall St.
By Joy Inae Kim
Calling all youth from the ages of 9-14: if you love hockey, here is an event of a lifetime! Get to know new people, play with old friends, try to win prizes and play hockey outside. The community of Chinatown would like to invite you to join in the 1st EVER Game On: Chinatown Youth Street Hockey Tournament.
Game On!
Sunday, August 8, 2010, 12-6 pm | 500 block of Carrall Street
(Between Pender and Keefer Street)
Cost: $50/team
Now, imagine yourself running through Carrall Street, passing the Chinese Cultural Center and various locations of history with friends and strangers with the sun warm on your face as you play hockey. The opportunity to play street hockey on a street like this would be near impossible any other time; however, for this event, the street is closed off from traffic as various teams from around the city come to play.
This event is sponsered by ScotiaBank and presented by the VCRC, Mah Society of Vancouver and Chinatown Next. Together they hope to foster new friendships, union and vibrancy in the historic Chinatown community. With a goal this big, this co-ed game will be MASSIVE!
