Covid-19 Update & Guidelines

Here at the Pond Hockey Classic, we are and always has been committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for all of our staff, spectators and participants. Due to the current pandemic, we have created a Preparedness Plan for our business, and the 2021 New England Pond Hockey Classic tournament, based on guidelines from Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and Executive Orders set forth by the State of New Hampshire's Reopening Taskforce and Governor Sununu. We plan to operate in accordance with the most up to date version of the Amateur and Youth Sports Guidelines as well as the ​Festivals and Fairs Guidelines​ issued by the Reopening Taskforce.

We have made major changes to the 2021 New England Pond Hockey Classic tournament to ensure the safety of our staff and participants at this years event as well as to meet the guidelines set forth by the State of New Hampshire. In order for us to comply with the Guidelines issued by the State of New Hampshire, SPECTATORS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED INSIDE THE RINK VENUE. We know the New England Pond Hockey Classic has become a highlight of the winter for people other than our participants but unfortunately due to the complexities this year we are unable to welcome anyone other than players inside the venue and on our shuttle buses. We appreciate your cooperation and we look forward to welcoming you all back to the event in the future.

This years event will see 130 total teams competing on 14 rinks. We have eliminated tournament village, beer gardens, locker room tents and live music to comply with the the regulations and to minimize the potential implications of Covid-19. This year we will host a stripped down version of the event we love with a focus solely on the pond hockey and we cannot wait.
