So ... if you are wanting your best shot at getting into next years tournament, now is a good time to get the ball rolling. One good thing is the price has not increased at this point as a price evaluation has not been done with the 2013 charges for ice times and referee charges. But already teams have started to book and pay for next year. Do not miss the boat again next year! Sign up NOW!
