THE inaugural Tka’s Eternal Life Ball Hockey Tournament is being held at Westsyde Centennial Park in Kamloops on August 23 and 24.
The tournament is celebrating the life of Taranveer (Tka) Dhillon, who had a love for sports, especially hockey. He played house and rep with Kamloops Minor Hockey for over 12 years. He was living in Surrey when he unexpectedly passed away last summer at the age of 32.
Taranveer was a vibrant, loving man who loved his sports and kids. He was constantly playing as much hockey as he could as he loved the game so much.
He spent his life living between Kamloops and Surrey. He loved traveling and exploring the world. His best attribute was his heart. He made everyone feel special and loved.
The tournament is a fundraiser for Kidsport that provides support to children in order to remove financial barriers that prevent them from playing organized sport.
The tournament invites the community to participate in the kid’s block party, beer gardens and great games to watch.
Tka’s Eternal Life Society is a not-for-profit society created to support children in sports. The mandate of the society is to ensure all children have the opportunity to play sports so they can have increased confidence, physical and emotional well-being.
When: August 23 & 24. Saturday 11 a.m.-6 p.m., Sunday 11 a.m.-3 p.m. (Bronze Medal Game at 1 p.m. and Championship Game at 2 p.m.).
Where: Westsyde Centennial Park
