The Mega Hockey 3on3 Extravaganza

SATURDAY! SATURDAY! SATURDAY!

Registration for The Mega Hockey 3on3 Extravaganza Tournament is now open!! registration link When: Saturday, March 19th Time: 6pm-11pm  (lounge will be open entire time ...and after) Where: Bucs Arena Cost: $40 Player and Goalies are FREE What you get: 4 Games guaranteed AND Pizza included in fee. ************************************************************** We recommend registering early as this event will probably sell out.  We are limiting it to only 48 players and 8 goalies. ************************************************************** You can request (1) teammate and we'll do our best to accommodate.  The idea is to make some new friends and play against old ones.... For those not familiar with this event, here is some info: We put up a foam divider all along the red line. 2 teams play cross ice in a 3 on 3 format. 4 teams are playing at the same time since each set of teams is on one side of the divider. Games are (2) periods that last 15 minutes each (running clock). There is no icing or off-sides. If a goal is scored or a goalie freezes the puck, the attacking team must back out to a "respectful" distance in order for team to bring the puck out.  Teams are broken up into 2 divisions where 3 round robin games determine the rankings. After these games, the teams are seeded and play based on their ranking.  Teams are created after all players are registered. In an attempt to make the teams as even as possible and the teams are created randomly in an effort for players to play with people they normally wouldn't play with. There will be a random variety of skill levels registering so if you're a beginner, don't be nervous, many of our players in this event are veterans and will make sure you have a good time. With 4 teams playing on the ice, the other 4 teams get to watch, socialize, eat & drink. The lounge is open and 2 waves of pizza will be delivered for all to enjoy (included in the fee). The bar will be open for drink purchases. Beer, soda & Gatorade will also be available. IMPORTANT PART: Anyone who has played in this event will tell you it is an absolute blast. What makes it fun is that it is not taken very serious from a competitive level. Players with varying skill levels have an opportunity to play with each other with no pressure of being a superstar. Most recently, teams have added the ever popular "Goal Celebration" contest where players that score have to come up with creative ways to celebrate. I've said this many times, but it seems as though the teams that have the worst records seem to have the most fun. Any questions, let us know! Mike and Matt ABC Hockey League
