🏒🚨Looking for an incredible hockey tournament experience? Look no further!
What makes for an unforgettable tournament is having close game scores!
🥅 At Showdown Tournaments, we understand the importance of balanced and competitive divisions. That`s why we go the extra mile to assess each team`s level of play, both within their league and beyond.
🚨We recognize that different regions may have varying classification systems - (AA, A, B, C, House Select) and have different meanings across the country. Because of this variance, your team will encounter teams with different eligibility rules or classification systems that may not necessarily correspond to what you are accustomed to in your particular area.
✅ To ensure your team is placed in the right division, we conduct a thorough screening process. It may take some time, but the outcome is truly rewarding!
🔹 We are here to answer your questions or provide more information about our tournaments. Have your coach or team manager send us a direct message.
Let`s get your team registered and ready for an incredible hockey tournament experience!
🏒Yours in Hockey
Brian & Whitney

🏒🚨Hockey Tournament Testimonial 🚨🏒
"I am glad I got to meet you at the tournament and tell you thank you in person but now that you have been able to get some sleep I want to say it again. Thank you for everything you did behind the scenes. No one will ever fully appreciate all the work it takes and I was so impressed with every step of the process. We were placed in just the right division and loved the competition. It is very clear that you both put your hearts into making this a great experience for the kids and I can`t say thank you enough.
I hope we get to see you again next season!!"

Hockey Moms, you are awesome and we appreciate you.
As a hockey mom, I know the rewards and the challenges.
I’ve supported my hockey player from Learn-to-Skate through high school, college and adult league. If you ever question yourself, please remember the ultimate goal is for your child to love hockey enough to want to play when they are finished with all the tiers and hoops, as an adult. Hockey can be a great experience for your child and yourself.
