Ashley & Stephanie Daubs Memorial 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament

On May 29, 2006, the community reacted with shock and horror by the deaths of Ashley and Stephanie Daubs who were killed when their father, in an apparent double murder/suicide, drove into a dump truck. Ashley, age 15 and her younger sister Stephanie, age 12 were known as bright, beautiful, friendly, and athletic young girls who loved to play basketball.
The London Abused Women’s Centre (LAWC), along with Gold Medal Basketball, have chosen to turn this atrocity into positive action. With the support of the girls’ mother, Debbie Daubs, our two organizations are hosting the 2nd Annual Ashley & Stephanie Daubs Memorial 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament at Springbank Park, just outside of Storybook Gardens, during the weekend of June 7th—8th, 2008. On the heels of a very successful tournament last year, the purpose of the memorial tournament is to honour the lives of Ashley and Stephanie.
We hope to bring families and children of all ages together for a weekend filled with fun, reflection and family time while raising funds to allow LAWC to expand its service delivery to young girls aged 12 to 15. Girls in this age group have identified that they require support in addressing both dating abuse and witnessing abuse in their homes. The London Abused Women’s Centre will be able to fill this gap in service delivery through fund development events such as this memorial tournament.
