Dominic Moore to Host Eighth Annual Smashfest®
July 25 in Toronto
TORONTO (July 4, 2019) – The eighth annual Smashfest® Charity Ping-Pong Challenge hosted by Dominic Moore will take place Thursday, July 25 at Steam Whistle Brewing in Toronto. This fan-inspired event supported by the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) showcases NHL players’ ping-pong skills, while raising money and awareness for research into concussions and rare cancers.
NHL players Mark Scheifele, Jeff Skinner, Alex Kerfoot and Anthony Cirelli are scheduled to be a part of this year’s event, with more than 20 current and former players expected to attend. Track #SmashfestVIII for further current NHL player announcements.
Nearly 100 professional athletes have participated in the tournament over the past seven years.
To date, Smashfest® has raised over $865,000 in support of concussion and rare cancer research.
Fans attending Smashfest® will have the unique opportunity to square off at the ping-pong table with and against NHL players; meet and interact with some of their favourite hockey players, among other celebrities in a fun atmosphere; and bid on exceptional auction items and prizes while garnering support for two important causes.
