Westmount Arena
The Van Cup was established in 2001 for the sole purpose of getting together with friends and having a good time all the while raising money for a charity. This year we will be raising money for the Sam Lazarus Fund
RULES
All players including goaltenders must be over 40.
Teams must set one roster for all 4 games. If a player can’t make it or gets injured, your team plays less a player. Think of it as if you are a travelling team. If a goalie goes down, please contact convener.
This is a friendly tournament. We can be competitive without being jerks. Absolutely no yelling or arguing with the referees. Whatever happens, leave it on the ice.
Games are 3x 12 minute, stop time periods. Puck will drop 3 minutes after Zamboni exits. No overtime except in finals.
Ties in the standings will be resolved by head to head records. If still tied, lowest GA and then lowest penalty minutes.
Be social. Come out to the Saturday Night Banquet and show your support. Not a “rule” but a strong suggestion.
