3 v 3 Ice Breaker Tournament

Mark Zarbo Hockey will be hosting its 3rd annual 3 v 3 Cross-Ice Ice Breaker Tournament! This is a great way to kick off a season or make your own team with friends! Anyone can enter a team!

–

These are 1-day tournaments. Meaning the whole tournament will take place start to finish in the same day!

–

Teams are guaranteed minimum of 4 games (3 round robin, 1 playoff) with a maximum of 6 games. Game are 30-minutes in length (2- 15-minute running time periods).

–

Teams are allowed a maximum of 9 players, 2 goalies, 2 coaches. Coaches are allowed to stand on ice with the team but MUST wear skates and helmet if choosing to do so. If choosing not to go on ice, coaches can stand on benches.

–

Depending on exact sign up, teams will be split into divisions by age and level. As sign ups come in, we will communicate division splits to the teams. That way every team knows exactly what is happening and what division they are in. Teams would have the option to commit or step out based on division splits (July 10th cutoff date).

–

Currently we are not accepting individual player sign ups, only team sign ups. Those individual players should still fill out a form as if teams need players or goalies that will be the list we pass along to those teams!

Individual Sign Up

NOTE! Our sign-up form gives the option to sign as an individual. Filling out the form as an individual player does NOT guarantee you the ability to play. We are collecting individual sign ups so when team’s need a few players or goalies to round out their rosters, we can provide them with a list of those interested to contact. Best way to guarantee a chance to play in the tournament is put together and enter your own team!
