The annual score ONE for the TEAM, 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament, sponsored by Nortrax and ServiceMASTER, is an official Huntington Society of Canada event. Since its inception in 2009, the tournament has been organized with the support of Fleming College Police Foundation students. These students build on leadership, organizational and communication skills, which are essential for a career in policing. By volunteering, Police Foundation students also demonstrate a sense of community and willingness to help others.

Constable Jodi Landriault of the Peterborough Lakefield Community Police Service was on the tournament’s organizing committee in 2009 and continues to volunteer. Const. Landriault says that the tournament is, “a great way for students to get involved in their community and support an amazing cause. Not only are we raising money, but awareness. ”
