The Alberta Stiga Table Hockey Championships VI will take place at Centre Stage (The Bay) in West Edmonton Mall on Saturday, January 29, 2011.

We will begin at 9:30 am. One or two initial rounds will be played for a total of around 28-30 pre-playoff games. Playoffs all best-of-sevens in all Pools. This a Player's Choice tournament. As in ETHL tournaments in the past, schedules are set up so that there are minimum figure changes between games (one overall change per round robin) and scores are kept by each player on his scoresheet, so you'll get the maximum amount of games in a minimum of time!

Tentative schedule:
9:30 - 12:30 First round robin
12:30 - 1:15 Lunch break
1:15 - 2:30 Second round robin
2:30 - 3:15 Break
3:15 - 7:00 Playoffs and award ceremony

Entry fee is $15 and participation is open to anyone - Albertan or not. There will be 3 (or 4) pools, with trophies for the top 3 finishers of each division. Last year, we had 21 participants.
There may be a Junior tournament this year as well.

This is a player's choice tournament. NHL players may use Inter goalies. All player figures (NHL and Inter) will be supplied, but you may bring your own teams, if you wish, to use only in the Playoffs. The ETHL timer and face-off rule will be used. All games are cleaned with diluted Original Windex, have Suplaks, Lyle Knittig net deflectors, pledged rods, oiled slots and 'Tack it Over' on the rod pegs. This tournament is not part of the CTHA/USTHA North American Stiga Tour.

Just got back from a mad tour 6 cities in 9 days. Wish I could have made it 7 cities. 430 here in the east. The boys out west must be into the second round or started the playoffs?

good luck to one and all.

Thanks, Dwayne, for putting up the results. I've been meaning to do it, but I just haven't had much time.
Thanks again to all 14 who participated and thanks to Will Wong for the stats!

Ah, now I know where the 'video' I mentioned in my previous post came from -- a little article on the tournament on a local website:
