Dear all,
I wanted to pass along a few updates and requests about the tournament. It is hard to believe we are less than 2 months away.
First, attached is the spreadsheet with information that we have.
SHI Tournament team spreadsheet pg 1.
Please review your team's info and reply to me and Judy Sheldon (judysheldon@verizon.net) if there are any changes. Most importantly, please confirm if you are using the shuttle bus and are not listed, and also please confirm your arrival time if you will be arriving later than Thursday morning and are not listed. We should be able to accomodate everyone's arrival time with the game schedule. We did receive request from a number of teams to only schedule morning games, unfortunately we won't be able to accomodate all of those requests.
Second, from Judy: I have received confirmation from Hockey Canada via USA Hockey that all of our Canadian teams have been approved by Hockey Canada to play in the Tournament. This means that Canadian teams that have not yet sent travel permits and Hockey Canada rosters do not need to do so. All US teams do need to send official USA Hockey rosters.
Third, this week I'll be depositing checks that have been sent for registration and the banquet.
Fourth, we are working on the game schedule, we hope to have that done in the next two weeks.
Finally, if any teams are staying at the Holiday Inn and have their own bus, please let me know. We have a team that may need help getting a few folks to the rink.
Thanks!
John Quill
