CPH – Cedar Park Heights Men’s Softball League
The Cedar Park Heights Men’s Softball League holds an annual tournament which ends on Fathers’ Day. Proceeds go to the Al & Millie De Souza Foundation, which pays for priority medical equipment for the Lakeshore General Hospital (LGH). Al and Millie were Sian’s grandparents.

The CPH has participated in every Sian Bradwell Softball Tournament since 1991 — the first year the event was opened to non-Kirkland teams, when park time became available.

2023
If last year was bad, this year was horrendous! Yet the players of the CPH Men’s Softball League, led by Tournament Director Liam Alcalde, still managed to make a very generous donation of $2,700 to the “Al & Millie”.
Pointe-Claire mayor Tim Thomas and Managing Director of the Lakeshore General Hospital Foundation, Nathalie Kamel, were on hand at the Sian Bradwell Softball Tournament to accept a cheque from members of the St. Louis and Cedar Park All-Stars teams.
2022
In 2022, the weather proved a big hurdle for the League to host the annual “Valois” Tournament, but they still managed to raise $4,000 for the Al & Millie De Souza Foundation. The League added a further donation of $2,800 in December. Seen below: Eyal Artzy (Treasurer) and Carole Ravenda of the LGH Foundation.
2021 – Andy’s Haircut Challenge
As the pandemic continued to play havoc with league and tournament games, St. Louis player Andy Brookman took it upon himself to do some fundraising. The whole team plus family and friends got together to raise $2,035 for the Sian Bradwell Fund.
