Tournament Mission   The mission of the tournament is to celebrate the excitement, diversity, joy, and excellence that youth hockey has to offer by bringing together the finest teams from a variety of North American and International locations into a premier tournament setting.  Young hockey players will be given a unique experience, exceptional competition, and the ultimate challenge to be the best. Through the tournament, we hope to promote youth hockey in Bemidji, Minnesota, and bring the community together in this celebration of hockey excellence.
