    First Annual Dragon Cup - College Roller Hockey Preseason Warmup Tournament

    Everyone,

    I am pleased to announce that the Drexel University Roller Hockey Club will be organizing the first annual Dragon Cup, a pre-season warmup tournament for college roller hockey teams only. This tournament is open to all College roller hockey programs, both NCRHA and PCRHL alike.

    This event will be held at the Sportsplex in Feasterville, PA on August 16th, 2008. Tournament start times will be announced after solidifying the tournament field. Entry fee is $400 per team and comes with a 4 game guarentee. This will be a one day tournament, including playoffs, with scheduling done ahead of time in consideration of any programs willing to travel for the event.

    The tournament will feature games of 2, 15 minute, running clock periods, and a to be determined single-elimination playoff round following round robin play.

    Interested parties, please email [email protected] with inquiries or registrations. Payments must be made in full, on or before August 11th.

    Hi Bill,

    This sounds really great. Typically, I don't like to see identical posts in two forums, however. I'm wondering if we should just leave this one up, and delete the one in the events forum. Anyway, I hope that this event is a big success.
    Sincerely,

    Hey Richard,

    Sorry to spam, I would guess the College forum is the more important copy... You are welcome to get rid of the other.

    James, if you can get up here, we'd be glad to have you. The Sportsplex is one of the best facilities in the region (although I do have a soft spot for it since I grew up playing there) and I know the club is working hard to make sure this is a great event. I'll check with the board, but I can't see a good reason any college roller team couldn't play.

    Just curious why you chose to do it so early in the season? Thats still almost two weeks before most of the schools head back and then its another week or two before everyone is settled and starting to play some hockey to get ready for the pre-season.

    Most is a key work here. Most, but obviously not the school that is putting on a tournament.

    We wanted to do this over the summer for those who were sitting around doing nothing. If the turnout isn't what we need, we can reschedule for some time in September.

    Drexel is in session year round...

    Hence why i used "Most", i was aware of Drexel and their crazy semesters.

    Good to hear. Hopefully you get enough teams without having to reschedule.

    The tough part about moving it is what seems like perpetual Midterms/Finals for us Drexel kids; but, again, if the turnout is lackluster I'm sure we can work something out.

    It also said "open to all College Roller Hockey Teams"...

    I didn't expect any out of region input, but if you and UMSL are interested, we'd love to have you... email me...

    If you aren't... why are you stirring pots?

    I would have to gauge interest...it would probably be a mix of A and B players. Highly unlikely, but then again, the drive really isn't THAT extreme. I'll see if anyone is interested (doubt it, but who knows).

    I know you're only look for TEAMS. But, have you ever consider allowing individual NCRHA players in the area the opportunity to sign up and play on a team that is made up of players from say the, ECRHA, MCRHL, and SECRHL to bolster the number of teams in the tournament?

    I know lots of guys that, live in close proximity to Feasterville and, attend schools in those areas.

    Maybe you can get a few more teams that way. Just a thought?

    How about incoming freshman that will be going to tryouts once school starts? Be nice to give them a taste of what's to come.

    Could be a good tuneup for tryouts.
