Get ready for a day of frosty fun at the annual Youth Pond Hockey Tournament in the heart of Lindenwood Park! Watch your kids hit the ice and revel in the joy of hockey the old-fashioned way—out in the crisp, open air!
We're gearing up for an action-packed day that promises endless smiles. Each team plays three games in this jamboree-style event, with two 10-minute halves. Our divisions are tailored for every skill level, with 10U, 8U, and 6U (All divisions are coed). Teams can roster up to 8 players, but squads of 6 are recommended for maximum fun! And that's not all—every registered player gets a cool beanie to rock on the ice.
Games are set for a fast-paced 4-on-4 showdown that'll have you at the edge of your seat! And when you're not cheering on your team, head over to our cozy warming tent for snacks, drinks, and a chance to toast some marshmallows on our outdoor fire pits!
A special shoutout to our amazing sponsor, Axis Clinicals.

Rink officials have the discretion to also award a goal to the opposing team when a minor penalty is flagrant and/or a team is consistently playing in a reckless manner.

The team that received the ejection plays the remainder of the current game short-handed. The rink official determines major penalties. (No players can be added if others are lost to major penalties).
