Hello Hockey Families and Players!
The below rules will apply for the upcoming Christmas Tournament. There are some additional reminders to keep in mind, Please note NO pictures on the ice as this will delay time.
Some additional points for the tournament: -
1-Medals are to be presented to the players AFTER they leave the ice. -
2-No pictures are to be taken on the ice.
3-The last period is to be
2 minutes LESS than remaining in the ice time. (This accounts for injuries, long periods, etc)
4-For all divisions, if one of the teams only has 6 players, the game will be played 4 on 4. More than 6 players, it's a normal game. Less than 6 players, that team forfeits the game and the coaches can mix up the teams and play a game for fun.
It is very important to keep the schedule on track. If we get behind in one game, then it will have a domino effect for the rest.
In the event of a tie at the end of regulation time, the following Sudden Death victory format will be implemented for the final games of the season or of the tournament (ie. Championship games.0
a. The first shift will be 1 minute of 4 on 4 play ending at the buzzer.
b. The second shift will be 1 minute of 3 on 3 play using different players than were on the ice in shift
1. Play ends at the buzzer.

and 2. Play ends at the buzzer.
d. The fourth shift will be 1 minute of 1 on 1 play using still different players than were on the ice in
shifts 1, 2 and 3. Play ends at the buzzer.e. During this overtime format, which shall be

I. All players must play through this rotation before players may be used again.
ii. Substitution of a goalie is not permitted.
iii. If a player incurs a penalty, they will be place in the penalty box for 1 minute. The next
available player will replace them on the ice when the penalty has expired. The penalized

iv.Penalties incurred during the 1 on 1 will be served as follows:
1. The penalized team will put the next eligible player on the ice and the opposing team will
be allowed to play an additional player. (2 on 1)
2. When the penalty expires, the penalized team will place the next eligible player on the
ice for the balance of the shift and the penalized player will remain in the penalty box until
the buzzer sounds. Then they will return to the player’s bench.
v.If after going through 2 full rotations of a to d above, a winner still has not been decided, then a
sudden death shoot out will be used.
Good Luck to All teams!
