For the 2024 tournament, the BFit Heroes Cup welcomes the new directors of the Hero's Cup Foundation, EJ and Jaime Nicholas. Both second generation firefighters, EJ and Jaime are passionate about first responders, mental health, and hockey. Along with working as a firefighter/EMT, EJ also works at the Fire Academy, is a team leader for his department's peer support team, and is a high school hockey coach. Jaime is also a firefighter/paramedic, a peer support member on the CISM team, and the founder of her department's peer support team.

With this change of directors, "The mission of the Hero’s Cup Foundation is to promote first responder mental health. Designed to bring firefighters, law enforcement, dispatchers, EMS workers, and military members together, HCF is a nonprofit charitable organization and the host of the largest first responder hockey tournament, the BFit Heroes Cup. Through social gatherings and physical activity, HCF raises awareness and funds for the needs of the first responder community and the charities they support."
