This year, our annual hockey celebration will continue late into the night on Lake Nokomis. The Timberland Boot Hockey Tournament is scheduled for the evenings of January 20-21, 2012, with championship games being played during the morning and afternoon of Sunday, January 22nd.
The tournament is a light-hearted event for men and women that brings friends together to share in competition, camaraderie and a love of hockey... in their boots! Modeled after the social evening games that we grew to love in high-school and college, the Timberland Boot Hockey Tournament is as much a party as it is a competition. So get your friends together and come join us for the "evening session" on Lake Nokomis.

Hey Steve!... same setup as the "skate version" - we use pond hockey goals without goalies. The only difference is that a ball is used in place of a puck.
Four games guaranteed! Two on Friday night and two on Saturday night... the top four teams advance to "Championship Sunday!"
Bob, both the two Friday games and the two Saturday games are played in evening. On both Friday and Saturday, games start at 5:30pm and 6:30pm.
Where can I find the game times and opponents for boot hockey? I did not get an email yet and I can't seem to find it on the web site even after I have logged in? Thanks for the help

Erik, sorry for the confusion. Boot hockey match-ups will be posted on Tuesday, January 17th.
Erik and Ryan, we are keeping boot hockey team registration open until midnight tonight for a couple people that are still putting teams together. After registration closes at midnight, we'll release this year's match-ups and post them to the websites. Thank you for your patience.
I just heard about the tournament. I have a team ready to play tonight. Is it too late to register?

Was just wondering if the boot hockey portion of this tournament is different than the regular skates version. Meaning, are there goalies and regular nets?
