Downtown Division police officers will be lacing up their skates tomorrow afternoon for a friendly game of hockey marking the 11th Annual McCauley Cup.“We look forward to the McCauley Cup every year,” says Const. David McFarland with Downtown Division and organizer of the McCauley Cup. “The event continues to grow and has become a special milestone in the community that the kids and police officers always get a little competitive and excited about.”
The McCauley Cup was born 11 years ago by a Downtown Beat officer who wanted to bridge the gap between police and the community. Since then, the game has grown in popularity and no matter the weather, youth from the neighbourhood are always eager to showcase their skills to their opponent police officers and spectators.
Opening remarks will commence at 12:50 p.m. and the puck drops at 1 p.m. The event takes place at the McCauley outdoor skating rink (10750 96 Street). All media are invited and welcome for photo/video opportunities.
Players and visitors will be able to enjoy a bonfire, hot drinks and some light refreshments. All spectators are encouraged to bring a non-perishable donation to the Edmonton Food Bank.
The EPS would like to thank the gracious sponsors of this event: United Cycle, Sport Central, K.I.D.S., Elite Sport Awards, and the Oilers Alumni.
The EPS would also like to thank the Edmonton Police Foundation and the McCauley Community League for their continued support.
