This Tournament Has Everything (TTHE) is a women’s/trans/two-spirit/non-binary Inclusive hockey weekend held on the Sunshine Coast BC in ch'atlich (Sechelt) We are a small local tournament run on 100% volunteer efforts
TTHE hockey tournament is committed to creating, sustaining, and supporting a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion in hockey. This year we were able to host over 100 players from all over North America in our 3rd Annual Hockey Weekend. All participants will register as individual players and will be placed on teams. This approach helps balance team skill and encourage connection and community to build new friendships.
We believe in giving back to our community. Thanks to KER Enterprises, Tapworks Brewing Company and Banditry Ciders continued sponsorship, TTHE is able to donate 100% of the proceeds from the 'Penalty Box' Bar upstairs at the arena to Sunshine Coast Youth Outreach , which provides drop in programs for queer youth and gender diverse folks. We were able to raise $1100 in 2023, $2100 in 2024, and $2393 in 2025.
Thanks to a Community Safety Grant from @fiertecanadapride and @wage_fegc with guidance from @metisnationbc TTHE is able to provide mental, spiritual and emotional support throughout the weekend. The Ambassador program is new this year. Therapists and Counsellors will be identified with these dusty rose sweaters from @getrealmovement . No appointments needed. Folks can just chat whenever about whatever at no cost.
We SEE you.
We SUPPORT you.
This is how communities are built 💜

“I decided to throw this type of a tournament because I wanted players who don't necessarily feel included in hockey to know that they have a place on the ice. TTHE Hockey Tournament was meant to promote and advocate diversity and inclusiveness in the sport."

“After playing hockey for 7 years as a kid, I found the sporting world to be an increasingly intimidating and confusing place. Rediscovering hockey as an adult and participating in the TTHE 2nd annual tournament as a player & photographer has brought me so much joy and healing. I am grateful for this community and I am excited to help further the tournament’s reach.”

TTHE Videographer
“Kao invited me to come shoot video at TTHE Tournament in 2024 and it was such an incredible experience. I’ve never been to an event where so many people wanted to give interviews and were so kind. It was an easy yes when I was asked to come back for 2025! I’m so excited to see TTHE tournament grow and get to chat with even more incredible hockey players this year.”

TTHE Ambassador Coordinator
“It is an absolute honour and joy to be involved in TTHE creating spaces for, and championing the voices of those marginalized in hockey. Kao has worked tirelessly to bring this vision to life each year and has allowed it to evolve in such a beautiful way centring around community and care. You can feel the intention behind every aspect and this tournament is just sheer magic! 3rd Annual: here we come!!”
"Sports are very binary and as a trans non-binary player, it’s tough to find room that feels safe on the bench. I spent my twenties and early thirties just doing late night mens drop-ins which meant changing alone in the dressing room and never really getting to know any players. Being able to experience the connection and inclusion of a team has been so inspiring.”
