Burnaby has hosted an international bantam tournament since 1962 making this one of the longest running tournaments in the world.

In 2015, the tournament was reimagined to honour the legendary Pat Quinn and the Pat Quinn Classic was created. Delivered and supported by hockey and community partnerships, the tournament carries forward the legacy of Pat Quinn and his passion for developing great athletes and leaders. The PQC has established itself as one of the preeminent tournaments in North America.
