The house tournament is a two round, round robin tournament with the top two teams playing for the gold with the bottom two going for bronze.
The first round of cuts will be on Friday the 8th.

Rich Chernomaz:The focus is on evaluation we want to see where the younger players are compared to the veterans, I have been pretty impressed by them. There probably be one or two guys that will come out of the woodwork, I’m sure we will see some as the week goes on. We have some injuries and some players are not here because of their clubs. We are doing strength tests aside from the scrimages.
