Beneficiaries – IIHF Women's Worlds U18 Championship

Beneficiaries

Canada’s Ultimate 50/50 is a fundraising initiative that extends the legacy of the 2026 IIHF U-18 Women’s World Championships beyond the tournament. The program supports: 

1. The Hockey Canada Assist Fund
A portion of proceeds will be directed to the Hockey Canada Foundation Assist Fund, with the goal of awarding financial assistance grants to families in Nova Scotia. These grants help break down barriers and give more kids the opportunity to play the game they love.

2. Celebrating Community, Culture, and Inclusion

Proceeds from the 50/50 will contribute to programs and activities that enhance the tournament experience, strengthen local communities, foster hockey development and create a meaningful legacy for Nova Scotia.

These include, but are not limited to: promoting hockey development, promoting active participants, honouring indigenous culture, and supporting local partners.
