Established in 2003, the MOLSON UNIVERSITY OLD STAR HOCKEY CHALLENGE provides former star players an opportunity to enjoy a hockey reunion with their alma mater teammates in a fun-filled alumni hockey tournament.
Beginning modestly in 2003 with four University alumni teams from Nova Scotia, today the tournament has grown into a ten-team format with 18 games over two days.The inaugural championship was captured by Saint Mary's Huskies.
At least one member from every UPEI Atlantic University Sport (AUS) team contributes to the UPEI Student Athletic Council, working tirelessly on the University's behalf. Over the past three years, close to $15,000 has been raised by student athletes as they network broadly across PEI and with alumni.
Recent fundraising and volunteer work includes:
- The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation's Run for the Cure
- IWK Spin-a-thon
- Breast Cancer fundraiser through Basketball
- UPEI Passion for Life Award, in memory of Rene Ayangma
- Charlottetown Food Bank Drive
