Love is in the air! It’s the Valentine’s Day Massacre 2025”Wildcard” Novice Tournament!!!Two 10 minute periods running clock until last 2 minutes of second period( if within 2 goals). Which are standard all in one day tournament rules.12 man teams and a goalie(will permit a back up goalie but absolutely can not play out).
Normal Novice rules / restrictions in place ( a/b restricted list/ novice restricted list(as written Oct 1st if player added or subtracted after that date does not apply)usa players u 18/23/35 —- will allow one over 45 usa OR u 16 per team.
Can not have played in an A/B tournament in last 2years. Tier 1 2024 Nbhl not allowed either)"
**New rule no one from the A restricted list can be used for Wildcard. A/B list is ok for wildcard.
All predicated on lists ect as is Jan 2 , 2025.. if a player plays A or is added to list it will change after Feb 15 for Instigator Events
Sooo what’s the “wildcard” . In the past I have heard guys want to enter these tournaments but are “ too good “ or restricted. Every team will be allowed one. U want a restricted , tier 1 or A guy go for it. Just one. The captains will clearly have to identify this player. These rosters will be due 2 weeks before the event. I will release them to the captains. After I police them to the best of my ability the captains can look at the other teams. If a player is in question it will be dealt with. Same rules for everyone period!
This will be an enjoyable fun event.
12 team maximum available. Every event I had has sold out. Don’t wait too long.
If there is clear cut difference In rosters or talent levels will consider a split upper and lower / or a pre split but as of now that is not the plan. When rosters are turned in this will be revisited.

All are standard all in one day tourny rules to keep team costs down and to finish at a reasonable time.
Lastly no fighting. If a punch is thrown the player(s) that threw the punch are out for the day no if ands or buts. This is a Choice Arena rule that I can not override.
If anyone jumps of the bench in an altercation. If it’s more than one player (whole team or as many not to leave 5 players left) the team is thrown out of tourny - no questions asked - no refunds.
** new rule if u throw a punch automatic 3 tourny suspension same with coming off the bench.
