Cwench All Canadian Games
The Cwench All Canadian Games are a pair of annual all-star basketball games, each featuring rosters composed of Canada's top senior high school players for that school year. Both games are played as a doubleheader; the first game featuring the top senior girls, followed by the second game featuring the top senior boys.
History
The All Canadian basketball game was founded in 2015 by CEO of "Bounce Elite" Tom McIntyre, Athlete Institute CEO Jesse Tipping, & BioSteel Sports Nutrition CEO & co-founder John Celenza. The first four editions of the game only featured a boys game, but the event was later expanded to include a girls game in 2019. The games feature the top 24 senior male and female high school basketball players either born in Canada or playing in the country. The Canadian game has drawn comparisons to America's McDonald's All-American Game. The first boys game was attended by upwards of 60 executives and scouts from the National Basketball Association.Title sponsorship
The game was initially branded as the BioSteel All Canadian Game when BioSteel was its title sponsor until 2023, when the company filed for bankruptcy late that year. The Games' co-founder John Celenza who was also the CEO and co-founder of BioSteel had left the company earlier in the year.In 2024, the games were played without a title sponsor & were branded as the All Canadian Basketball Games.
On March 20, 2025, Celenza's new company that he co-founded as its new CEO, Cizzle Brands, signed a 5-year title sponsorship deal for its flagship brand Cwench Hydration to rebrand the game as the Cwench All Canadian Games.

In 2025, Cizzle Brands' newly signed branding deal also included a new partnership with TSN that restored the network's broadcast rights after a one year absence.Locations
