Has Been Never Was Tournament

We are looking to form up to six teams of at most 13 skaters and one goalie, each captained by a current or former member of CHA coaching community. Teams will be “drafted” by the captains to ensure parity between teams and ensure the games are fun and competitive for all. The cost of the tournament this year will be $125 per skater and is free for goalies. The tournament will be held during the week of April 6th at the Chelmsford Forum. Games to be scheduled during the evenings of Tuesday April 7th through Thursday April 9th, with championship and consolation games on Saturday morning April 11th.

Game Format

Each weekday round robin game will consist of a 3-minute warm-up and intermission and two-(2) 22-minute, run-time halves. The games on Saturday will be modified to 25 minute, run-time halves.

Team Jersey

Included in the entry fee is a team jersey, which will be provided prior to the first game.
