We will however send a letter to all participating overseas teams to confirm full payment and a reserved place at the festival. No other supporting documentation will be provided.

Many thanks for your understanding

Heads Up…

Hey there, hockey enthusiasts! Just one final thing… We just wanted to give you a heads up that we reserve the right to switch things up at any point leading up to and during the big weekend, anything you see with a * might be effected but not exclusively – we like to keep you on your toes. And, just so you know, the game time may be extended or reduced based on how many teams we’ve got in the running. We don’t want anyone getting too comfortable out there.

Players & Up to 2 coaches will receive a snack pack which will include*, Drink, Crisps and Buscuits on both Saturday and/or Sunday of the festival depending on your entries.

Finally, when you arrive at the festival, we’ll give you a snazzy wristband – but hold on to your hats, because we’re only handing it to the team organiser. We don’t want any wristband mix-ups or shenanigans. So, get ready for a wild ride, folks!
