Hello Teams!

We are cordially inviting the US Regional Elite and International underwater hockey teams the CanAm Regional Elite Championships on January 28th-29th 2017 in Thornton, Colorado!  

The venue will feature a full Sport Court Playing Surface and CanAm's custom Sport Court Uni2 puck.  Paid referrees. One of the fastest UWH surfaces in North America.  This won't be a tournament to miss.

Tournament - Saturday and Sunday.

The 2017 CMCs will features our Regional Elite division.  Denver's Battle at Altitude tournament takes place on the other court the same weekend.  

Our goal is to provide full UWH referees for this tournament.  Refereeing will be provided by a paid referring system used with success at CMCs last year. Full information regarding the ref situation will be made available as we draw closer to the tournament.

Veteran's Memorial Aquatic Center in Thornton, CO is conveniently located near the Denver International Airport.  Learn more about the pool on their website: https://www.adams12.org/services/community-use-facilities/veterans-memorial-aquatics-center.

Every year CMCs attracts players from the US, Canada, Colombia, and further abroad.

Team entry fees and registration is due by December 31st, 2016.  The final 'late' deadline for any entry is January 6th, 2017; but space is very limited.
