RETURN OF THE ROBIN

 

ADULT ICE HOCKEY

 

 TOURNAMENT

 

Rochester, MN

 

 

 

Return of the ROBIN is the annual adult ice hockey tournament held in Rochester, MN. The tournament has grown from a couple of "old timers" banging the puck around the rink to a nine division, forty-eight team tournament that draws players from all around the country and further. The tournament contains divisions with ex-pros to novice levels and is no-check no-slap shop fun filled weekend

GAME PICTURES
Most of the game pictures have now been sorted, edited and uploaded. They have been put into folders by games. We have taken the 2009 game schedule and attached buttons to each game that contains a photo album to allow you to directly link to that game's pictures. I hope this makes it easier for your viewing pleasure. Give us some feedback good or bad or some other suggestions.

ANOTHER SUPER YEAR !!
Thanks to you we had another fantastic year! We hope this new format at the open arena gave you more space to enjoy yourselves and consolidated the events a little for you. WE had a super turn out for the banquet with record numbers attending. Moe fans and friends of the Robin than ever before. Mickey's did a super super job with the pigs and the drinks!

We would love to hear your comments about the tournament. What you liked or how we could improve on it. Either on the message board or suggestion pages.

There were 3369 pictures taken at the tournament. Needless to say it will take a while to go through them all and upload them. Many are images from Maxim and will be available to purchase. The ROBIN images can also be purchase through Maxium if you want them enhanced (sharpened, brightened) and the Robin Tournament frame put around them. Maxium can provide them to you in digital or photo format.

I will provide an update when pictures have been uploaded and ready for viewing.

** Women's did not play all the games as scheduled. Instead they played some teams twice. In these cases the scores and points for a team in each game were added together under one game. Based on all games played and the tie breakers listed, the division ended as follows:
Tie Breaker #1: Total Points lt Chicks(4), Flyers(4), Blue Devils(4), Roch Women(0)
Tie Breaker #2:  Total Score: LT Chicks(10), Blue Devils(19)
As you can see, I am missing a few championships. Games and scores have evaded me as well (and I was the keeper of the board!!), so.... if anyone can help me out here I WELCOME ANY INFFORMATION YOU CAN PROVIDE ME.....
