03 / MORE THAN A TOURNAMENT

MORE THANA TOURNAMENT

Preseason is not only about preparing players for the first games of the season.

It is also the first opportunity for a new team to spend real time together.

Vuokatti Cup Preseason combines competitive hockey with enough time away from the rink to build the team for the season ahead.

These are not short tournament games.

Every team plays four full-length preseason games with 3 × 20 minutes of effective playing time. Ice resurfacing between periods.

Four real preseason games give the coaching staff a chance to test lines, special teams and a new team's game before the competitive season begins.

All four Preseason tournaments are played with 3 × 20 minutes of effective playing time and ice resurfacing between periods.

WISEHOCKEY

Wisehockey – A game changer

MORE THAN FOUR GAMES.GET THE DATA.

The Wisehockey system is used in every game of the Vuokatti Cup Preseason tournaments.

Each team receives Wisehockey data from all four of its tournament games, and the system is in use for every participating team throughout the tournament.

The data supports the coaching staff in preparing for the new season and makes it possible to follow team and player performance in real game situations.

The final scope and delivery of the data will be confirmed later.

ALL GAMES ARE STREAMED

Streaming is included for every game of the tournament.
