This May, we are hosting the 3rd annual Buckets for Myles Basketball Tournament in honour and memory of our inspiring brother/cousin/friend Myles Lindsay. The tournament will be held at Rockridge Secondary School on May 4th at 11:00 AM. Spectators are encouraged, and donations are greatly appreciated!
Where: 5350 Headland Dr, West Vancouver, BC
When: May 4th, 11:00 AM start
To participate, please email bucketsformylestournament@gmail.com. Donations can be made right here on this page! The suggested player donation is $50, but any amount is appreciated. If we meet our $5000 goal, a private donor will match that amount. We also encourage players to spread the word to families and friends this year as we try to hit a total Team Miles for Myles donation amount of $ 600k over four years!
Team Miles for Myles is raising funds this year for one of the BC Cancer Foundation's key priorities, pediatric cancer research led by Dr. Poul Sorensen and his colleagues at BC Cancer.
Dr. Sorensen's lab is currently focused on two urgent priorities within childhood cancer research:
- Targeting high-risk pediatric cancers with new immunotherapy approaches.
- Understanding and targeting stress adaptive pathways in high-risk pediatric cancers and how these pathways lead to aggressive metastatic disease.
What is very exciting about both these research streams is that they could provide treatment for pediatric cancer patients in as little as one to one and a half years! This is significant because, up until now, children have had very little access to immunotherapy and have had no treatment for aggressive metastatic disease.
