    Stick It To Cancer Night

    Our Ellis Tiger Middle School & Upper School Field Hockey teams have teamed with The American Cancer Society. 


    Cancer has touched all of us in some way. We want to stop this disease in its tracks. We'll spend the next few weeks fundraising for the American Cancer Society. Then, during our home games on October 13th, 3:30pm for Middle School & 5pm for Upper School, we'll honor the lives lost to cancer, celebrate survivors, and support the caregivers who so selflessly help others.
