Holiday Classic Update: Cancellation Notice
We’re sad to share that this year’s Holiday Classic has been cancelled due to lower-than-expected team registration.

This is never an easy decision. Our volunteers and organizers worked hard behind the scenes to make it happen, but with fewer teams signing up than needed, it just wasn’t possible to run the kind of fun, competitive weekend everyone looks forward to.

That said, we’re already looking ahead to next year. We’ll be reviewing the timing, format, and divisions to see how we can bring the event back even stronger and make it easier for more teams to join in.

All teams who registered will receive full refunds, and we truly appreciate the interest, support, and enthusiasm everyone continues to show for the tournament and for minor hockey in our community.

Thank you for understanding

Holiday Classic Tournament Committee
