Youth Pond Hockey Tournament

NEW FOR 2025, THE COLORADO YOUTH POND HOCKEY TOURNAMENT WILL TAKE PLACE AT THE BRECKENRIDGE GOLF CLUB, 200 Clubhouse Dr, Breckenridge, CO 80424. We will utilize the main Pond off of the Clubhouse. 

How much does it cost to enter my team in the tournament and what am I paying for?

​​​Tournament fees are $650.00 per team. The entry fees are used to build the rinks, pay for rentals and equipment, site fees, registration processing, player hats, pucks, shovels, staffing, maintenance, and so much more we could bore you for hours.

How many players can we have on our team?

Each team is recommended to have 6-8 players. Pond hockey is about ice touches and puck touches! Individual players may only play for one registered team per division. If you wish to play on more than one team in different divisions, keep in mind you may have games at the same time, so you'll end up missing one of your team's games.

​

If a player on our team is injured or not fit to play come time for a game, can we make substitutions?

You can make any roster changes you'd like prior to the start of the tournament. Please do so via email to chris@summityouthhockey.org within 1 week of tournament start date. If you have injured or absent players during the tournament, you can only make roster changes during round-robin play. Once play-offs start, there are no substitutions.

​​

How many games does my team get to play and when?

Every team in the tournament is guaranteed 4 games during round-robin play in your division. The top two teams in each age level will play a final championship game.

The mite division will not have a championship but will have 4 games guaranteed. The mite level will be split into two divisions (Upper and Lower). 

The schedules are determined on the Sunday night before the tournament. This would be done sooner, but there are many elements that affect the schedule creation, such as ice conditions which determine the quantity of rinks we can build. All schedules will be posted on this website and also emailed to all registered players.

​

Can we make schedule requests? Some of my team can't make it until Saturday morning.

While we'd love to accommodate every teams special schedule requests, it simply is not possible with the amount of teams. You can play a game without your whole team present, so you may need to play a game or two with one of your teammates absent if your entire team is not able to make a game.​
