Super League Gaming Teams Up With The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society for a Build Competition Hosted on Minehut

Super League Gaming, a global leader in connecting consumer brands with video gamers of all ages through creator communities, proprietary platforms, and esports properties, and The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) announced today that they are teaming up for an interactive build competition hosted by Super League’s Minecraft community, Minehut.

The inspiring virtual event will take place throughout the month of November, bringing together creative Minecraft players with LLS Honored Heroes – real-life, pediatric cancer survivors and patients. Participants will enter into an amusement park-themed lobby in Minehut, tasked to build what their dream world would look like once they or their loved one are declared cancer-free. As they join the competition, they’ll learn more about LLS Honored Heroes and their inspiring journeys.

“It is an honor to partner with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to spread awareness and raise funds for a cause that impacts nearly 55,000 children and adolescents under the age of 20 and their families every year,” says Matt Edelman, Super League Chief Commercial Officer. “It is never too early to learn that your actions can make a difference in the lives of people who need an incomparable amount of support. Gamers who participate in this competition will be helping to revolutionize blood cancer cures and care.”

“Collaborating with Super League Gaming provides LLS a game-changing moment to reach a new generation of donors,” said Coker Powell, SVP, Chief Development Officer for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. “The partnership provides an opportunity to remind the public about the urgent need to support research to fight blood cancers — a disease that is diagnosed every three minutes in the U.S. and has no current means of prevention. LLS is working tirelessly to find cures and provide more support for blood cancer patients and families than any organization in the world.”

The LLS Build Competition comes at a time when awareness and funds for LLS are uncommonly low as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Children battling blood cancer are experiencing extreme isolation as most patients, if not all, are seriously immunocompromised. This event is designed to give those fighting blood cancers an opportunity to express their creativity and play in an environment removed from their diseases.

Following the four-week competition, the creators of the best builds will be interviewed by top Minecraft influencers and featured in exclusive video content on their YouTube channels. During the building phase, players will be encouraged to promote the event and raise funds to advance The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life for current patients and their families. If players raise $250, they will receive a one-of-a-kind Minecraft LLS Build Competition Gamer Kit with special items.

The free competition concludes on December 1 but fundraising will remain open until the end of the year. Families, friends and other Minecraft players are invited to explore the virtual amusement parks and help foster strength and hope for a world beyond cancer. The Build Competition server can be accessed using the Minecraft Java Edition for PC and Mac or Minecraft Bedrock Edition for PC, Mac, iOS and Android. A Minecraft account is required.

Great Canadian Entertainment and a consortium group of certain communities from the Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe, through an entity affiliated with Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe Management Ltd. (the “Ts’elxwéyeqw Group”), announced that on November 7th, 2025, they entered into a definitive agreement for the purchase by the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group from Great Canadian Entertainment of Elements Casino Chilliwack, one of the premier gaming and entertainment destinations in the Fraser Valley region of British Columbia.

The Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe constitute seven First Nation communities and are the First People of the Chilliwack River watershed. The transaction represents a transformational milestone for the communities within the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group.

Elements Casino Chilliwack serves guests across the Fraser Valley and is Chilliwack’s top destination for gaming and entertainment, featuring over 300 slots, live and electronic table games, bingo, dining, live entertainment and more.

The closing of the transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions and the receipt of regulatory and other approvals. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, Great Canadian Entertainment will continue to provide transitional services and support to the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group for a period following closing.

“This purchase marks an exciting milestone for our Nations and for the entire territory. By coming together in partnership, we are not only investing in a strong business opportunity, but also in the future of our people. The revenues generated through this acquisition will help strengthen our communities, create new opportunities, and ensure our Nations continue to play a leading role in the local economy. Additionally, we believe that local community-based ownership of Elements Casino Chilliwack will further strengthen the broader Fraser Valley community and economy. It’s a proud moment that reflects how Indigenous leadership and collaboration can build a stronger, more inclusive future for everyone,” said Chief David Jimmie, Chief of Squiala First Nation and President of Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe Management Ltd.

“We are very excited to have entered into this agreement with the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group. We have had the privilege of being part of the Chilliwack community since we opened Elements Casino Chilliwack in 2012, and we believe that under the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group’s stewardship, the business will begin an exciting new chapter. For the team members and guests of Elements Casino Chilliwack, and the local community, we can think of no better owner for the business. We look forward to the closing and then working with the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group team during the transition period,” said Matt Anfinson, CEO of Great Canadian Entertainment.
