Unfortunately, we will not be in a position to host the Alberta Pond Hockey Championships in 2012. After an incredible five year run, filled with some incredible pond hockey memories, marked by some amazing play, visits from NHL legends, and of course the climate, we must place this year’s tournament in abeyance. A sincere and genuine thank you to past teams, volunteers, sponsors and the surrounding municipalities. Were it not for the collective effort we would not have achieved the success we experienced. Thank you for all of your support.
