Teams
A
team consists of up to 5 registered players but competition is 4-on-4
play. The 5th players is optional and may be registered by teams should
all 4 players not be available for all games. Only 4 players may suit
up for any one game however and those 4 players will play the entire game.
NOTE
THAT SUBSTITUTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED ONCE A GAME COMMENCES. ORGANIZERS
MAY ALLOW A SUBSTITUTE IF A PLAYER IS INJURED AND CANNOT CONTINUE PLAYING.
Substitutions
to team rosters may be allowed at the discretion of the organizers before
play commences but not thereafter (please do not try to "stack"
your team at the last minute!!). Specificaly, substitute players should
be roughly the same age as the player being withdrawn to maintain Division
organization.
All
players must be equipped with skates, regular hockey sticks and helmets.
Specifically, no goalie sticks, goal tending equipment or pads are permitted.
Note
that if a player is assessed a major penalty, that player will be suspended
from playing the balance of the tournament, including playoffs, and the
team will play 3-on-4 thereafter. Generally, a major penalty is assessed
for any intentional action or behavior such as fighting that could or
does cause injury to any other player, during play or at any other time
in the tournament. Further, abuse of our volunteer monitors will not be
tolerated and be considered a major offense.
The
Caddy Cup
The
Caddy Cup will be presented to the Gold Medal team who will have the Team
and Player names engraved in the Cup base as an historical record of their
achievement. Please note that the cup will be retained in the possession
of the Kinsmen Club of Bolton and will reside in a location of their choosing.
Schedule
The
schedule will be such that games start every 35 minutes (1/3 of all teams
play at any one time) with games beginning on Saturday morning at 7:30
AM and continue through to about noon. Sunday will again start at 7:30
AM for the playoff games. As you can appreciate, an event with this many
participants can be somewhat chaotic, especially at the beginning. We
therefore ask all players to be on-ice ready to play at 7:30 AM both days.
Communications
Prior
to the actual event, ALL communications between teams and the organizers
will be by email only. Other forms of communications such as telephone
and fax cannot be supported. Remember that this event is run by volunteers
so responses to emails may not be immediate but done as fast as possible
under the circumstances.
