September is NICU Awareness Month, and we’re taking a moment for this Throwback Thursday to look back on something truly special.
The inaugural Tiny Fighters Cup brought the hockey community together for an unforgettable weekend — and together, we raised $18,967.10 for families in the St. Luke's University Health Network NICU.
We’re proud to officially announce that the Tiny Fighters Cup returns April 23–25, 2027 at Steel Ice Center.
Last year’s event featured:
🏒 4 divisions
🏒 191 players
🏒 10 states represented
🏒 40+ hockey organizations represented
🏒 39 hours of hockey
🏒 623 goals scored
🏒 18 Pucks for Preemies delivered to the NICU
This event is about more than hockey — it’s about community, compassion, and showing up for the tiniest fighters and their families.
Pre-registration opens October 15 — Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day.
