Playing for SickKids at the 2026 Heatwave Beach Volleyball Tournament

On July 11, 2026, our team traded the office for the sand at Woodbine Beach to play in the 32nd annual Heatwave for SickKids beach volleyball tournament. The event, which holds a Guinness World Record as the largest of its kind, has raised roughly $5 million for SickKids Foundation, and we were glad to lend a hand.

On Saturday, July 11, 2026, the lawyers and staff of Davidson Cahill Morrison LLP traded the office for the sand at Woodbine Beach to take part in the 32nd annual Heatwave for SickKids beach volleyball tournament.

Heatwave has been a Toronto summer tradition since 1995. It has grown into one of the largest charity beach volleyball events anywhere and holds a Guinness World Record as the largest beach volleyball tournament ever held.

Every team plays in support of the SickKids Foundation and The Hospital for Sick Children. Organizers report that the tournament has raised roughly $5 million for SickKids over more than three decades.

Supporting a children’s hospital is close to home for a firm whose work includes medical malpractice and serious personal injury. We see every day how much skilled, well-resourced care matters to children and their families.

We had a great day on the court, and we are grateful to Heatwave and its organizers for putting on such a well-run event for such a good cause. Readers who would like to support SickKids can learn more or donate through the SickKids Foundation.

Kamlu v 2502301 Ontario Inc: Why a Board-Less Corporation Cannot Litigate

In Kamlu v 2502301 Ontario Inc, the Ontario Superior Court dismissed an action as a nullity after the defence discovered the plaintiff corporation had operated for years with no valid board of directors, its sole directing mind an undischarged bankrupt. Justice Chiappetta held that an officer’s authority cannot outlive the board, and that a trustee’s silence is not ratification. A cautionary tale on corporate governance and the capacity to litigate.
