Make a Difference, One Shift at a Time
The hockey community has come out in force to support LivFree over the past year, from youth jamborees and camps, to our 24 Hockey Marathon. Here you can explore all things LivSports Hockey.
The 24 Hour Hockey Marathon is more than just a game — it’s nonstop action for an extraordinary cause. Players hit the ice for a full day of hockey, joining forces to raise funds and awareness for kids and families impacted by pediatric cancer.
Youth Jamborees
Jamborees provides a community-based youth sports event where youth hockey players compete in a 3v3 or other non-competitive formats and raise funds to support families battling pediatric cancer.
At the LivSports Hockey Camp, the LivSports Champion’s Curriculum and guiding principles are developmentally adapted for each specific age group and are purposefully ingrained in all the activities and drills participants will take part in.

LivSports is committed to ensuring every athlete — regardless of financial circumstances — has access to our camps, jamborees, and marathon events.

Purpose behind our Passion
About LivFree
At LivFree, our mission is to support children and families impacted by pediatric cancer by helping create moments of hope and joy.
Moments of Joy are meaningful experiences—big or small—that provide opportunities for connection, healing, renewed hope and joy. They offer childhood cancer patients, along with their siblings and parents, a break from hospital visits and hard days. They help families make lasting memories and experience hope through moments of joy.

Why Sports?
Sports have long been a vital part of LivFree's mission. For years, LivFree has provided opportunities for children and their families to attend professional sporting events, offering them a chance to step away from the challenges of their cancer journey and focus on family and fun.
Building on this tradition, LivFree began engaging with the Connecticut youth sports community to raise funds for these joyful experiences. Through events like the LivFree Baseball Jamboree, the transformative power of youth sports beyond just fundraising was discovered. These events fostered a sense of camaraderie and community that transcended the usual competitive nature of youth sports, creating a unique atmosphere of unity and support.
Inspired by this impact, LivFree has launched LivSports: a platform that harnesses the widespread appeal and accessibility of youth sports to spread hope, build awareness, and rally support for the pediatric cancer community. By integrating our cause with something so deeply ingrained in our communities, we aim to create lasting change and hope for those who need it most.
