Why we exist

Put the spotlight on kids who’ve earned it — and the community that raised them.

Classic 2026 started as a middle-school showcase for student athletes. Today we cover all of Eastern Ontario across U14, U16 and U18 boys and girls.

We exist to help kids see themselves as athletes, to give scouts and coaches a place to find them, and to fund the community programs that keep the next wave of players in the game.

Where the money goes

Who we support

Every ticket, every sponsorship, every share — 100% of net proceeds go back to youth basketball programming across Eastern Ontario.
