Default Any interest in a hockey tournament in Canmore?

The HNA has a 3 day hockey tournament at the end of August (friday, Saturday, Sunday). I'm thinking of putting my team in it, but I've already had 4 or 5 guys say they won't be able to make it, and I'm guessing that number will rise.

So I just want to gauge interest on CP. What we would do is borrow the jersyes off the guys who aren't coming and I'd enter the team I have now, that way we wouldn't have to go out and buy practise jerseys, and get them numbered up, for a 3 day tournament.

The cost is $975 per team, so with 13 or 14 guys it'll be around $70. We can get accomadations, but that typically doubles the cost, so usually teams just try and camp near canmore, pending whether the weather weathers our ability to do so.

It's usually a pretty fun weekend of getting blasted every night and then trying to play more than 1 hockey game the next day.

I've done that tourney for about 6 years now. It is a blast and can turn into quite a gong show.

Gong show? Like waking to the sound of liquid hitting the carpet, only to find a drunken team mate relieving himself in the corner of our hotel room at 4:30 am when he couldn't find the bathroom???

The HNA Calgary web site is here for anyone wanting to read more about the tourney details or the leagues they run.

Haha, yep, or waking up the next morning to see your gear covered in snow from being put outside to freeze and finding puke splatter all over it...

I think this calls for a CP drinking team to enter.
