ABA Community

Established in 1989, this annual tradition formerly known as the Big Valley and Toronto Gamecocks Charity 3 on 3 Tournament is back for another run! We offer an organized tournament format for our competitive players, while our more recreational and well-seasoned community can enjoy some casual 3s and a shootaround in the gym before heading to the pub - all in support of St. George's College Foundation. It's always a fantastic day of good times catching up with old friends in support of a worthy cause - hope to see you there!

Every December we pay tribute to Lucas Peel with the annual Lucas Peel Memorial ABA Alumni Game. RSGC has officially retired #34 in honour of Lucas with an inspiring banner hanging front and centre in the gym. We retired his jersey number not simply because of his excellent basketball skills, impressive accomplishments or championships won, nor because of how we tragically lost him way too soon, but more so because of his kindness, selflessness, goodwill and how much he always gave of himself to others on and off the court as a player, leader, mentor, alumni, and friend to all – he personified everything that all players, coaches, and people of all ages should strive to be – a role model for us all.

There is no fee to participate in this event, we only ask that anyone in a position to do so to please make any kind of contribution that they are able to, great or small, in memory of Lucas Peel directly to The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation - thank you!

This is a very special event for our community in support of a noble cause - any day you can play ball and do something important for others is a great day!

The Knights finished strong, coming in 4th place overall, and enjoyed some international basketball competition and a unique and wonderful life experience taking in all that Paris has to offer - GO KNIGHTS!
