ABOUT US
THE WFG HOCKEY CLASSIC WAS ESTABLISED IN 2011. AT FIRST, THE GAME WAS JUST A WAY FOR A FEW FINANCIAL GUYS TOGETHER TO PLAY HOCKEY AND RAISE A FEW BUCKS FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
YEAR AFTER YEAR, THE GAME STARTED TO GAIN SOME TRACTION AND HAS BECOME BIGGER AND BIGGER EACH YEAR.
IT'S A VERY SIMPLE FORMAT. THE BATTLE OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON VERSUS CALGARY. ALL OF THE PLAYERS ARE WORLD FINANCIAL GROUP ASSOCIATES. THERE ARE PLAYERS WHO HAVE NEVER PLAYED ANY ORGANIZED HOCKEY TO ONES THAT HAVE PLAYED IN THE NHL.
IN THE PAST 9 YEARS THE WFG HOCKEY CLASSIC HAS RAISED OVER $600,000 FOR THE MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION, THE ALBERTA CANCER FOUNDATION, THE MS SOCIETY, THE AB CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, AND THE STOLLERY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL.
ALTHOUGH THE GAME IS FOR FUN, IT GETS QUITE COMPETITIVE, AS EVERYONE WANTS TO GET THEIR NAME ON THE CUP. ULTIMATELY, THE BIGGEST WINNER IS THE STOLLERY CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL.
WE WERE PROUD TO BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE STOLLERY ON NOVEMBER 23RD, 2016, AS PART OF THEIR 15 THANKS, AS ONE OF THEIR CONTRIBUTORS TO THE STOLLERY FOUNDATION.
