PACKAGE EXPLANATION
The CAN/AM Pond Hockey Tournament is available as a Gold Package where prices are charged on a per person basis depending on the number of players and guests in each room. This per person cost includes hotel accommodations, the tournament fee, and all of the package benefits listed for the tournament. All tax and gratuity are included in prices. The price is per person for the weekend. There are no additional fees. Depending on hotel selection, your room will have either a queen/queen, double/double, king/sofa bed or queen/sofa. Parking, cots, and other incidentals will be the responsibility of the individual incurring these charges.
To calculate costs for the Gold Package, add the number of players and guests in a room. This determines the occupancy i.e. 1 player + 1 guest = double occupancy. Once you know the occupancy, simply add the corresponding per person cost for each player and guest in that room. All minors are free and do not receive any package benefits. Minors do not affect the occupancy. Minors stay with parent(s) in existing bed space. Therefore 1 player + 1 guest + 1 minor = double occupancy. We arrange your hotels, games, divisions, tournament events, and let you worry about one thing: having fun while experiencing great hockey!
