What began in 2012 as a casual holiday scrimmage among friends has grown into a full community celebration and one of the Kootenays’ favorite holiday traditions. A day where hockey, nostalgia, and holiday spirit come together to raise funds for local families, youth sports, and community initiatives.
The Christmas Classic is more than a game… it’s a reunion, a fundraiser, and a feel-good holiday tradition built on camaraderie, giving back, and just the right amount of festive chaos.
Join us on December 22rd at the Castlegar Complex for a full day of hockey and holiday fun:
