Date: Nov. 22 - Nov. 26, 2023
Sharks Ice at San Jose and the San Jose Jr. Sharks invite you to its 18th Annual Pacific District U.S. Regional Silver Stick® Tournament. Come spend your Thanksgiving Weekend playing hockey in beautiful San Jose, CA!
Our goal is to provide a positive tournament experience and great competition at various age divisions and levels. Games will start on Thanksgiving Day, with some local teams possibly playing Wednesday night.
The Silver Stick® International tournament is in its 65th year of hosting hockey tournaments across North America! Our Regional tournaments are unique in that if you are a Champion of the Division that you have competed in, this entitles you to the right to participate in an International Finals tournament, competing against other teams who had been successful in winning their Regional Qualifying tournament.
