Tuukka Cup Raises $10,327 For Children’s Charities

The 2018 Tuukka Cup which was held earlier this year, in conjunction with other fundraising efforts in memory of Ronny ‘Tuukka’ Betterley, a local hockey enthusiast who passed away this year after a battle with DIPG at the age of 7, raised $10,327.23 for a trio of children’s charities.

The Tuukka Cup tournament, held in August in Ridgetown, raised funds for charities selected by the Betterley family including Childcan, Ronald McDonald House, and Children’s Wish Foundation.

The first Tuukka Cup was a huge success with 33 teams and over 170 players registered.

A “Drive 4 Tuukka” test drive event was then held at Blenheim Chevrolet to raise additional money.
