Celebrating The Origins Of The Game And The Culture That Keeps It Going

On Frozen Ponds is a film project dedicated to showcasing the subculture, which exists around the sport of p on d hoc key. P rodu c ed by professionals in the industry “On Frozen Ponds” will take you inside the turbulent, passionate and authentic world of Pond Hockey, showcasing the die-hard hacks, committed crews, former pros, obsessive fa n s a n d s m a l l tow n s t h a t thrive in the heart of New England winter. The crew from On Frozen Ponds was on site at last years New England Pond Hockey Classic and they are returning again this year to continue to capture the story they feel is waiting to be told. Following PHC Founder Scott Crowder and his crew, On Frozen Ponds will portray first hand what it takes to organize and run one of the biggest outdoor pond hockey tournaments in North America. This project will also showcase something that cannot be ignored, the role that the climate plays on this subculture and the people who enjoy playing hockey outside. Focusing on the warming winters, the thinning ice and the generation of future ice hockey players who may never get the chance to skate outside on frozen ponds. Here is a clip of On Frozen Ponds Film Synopsis: It’s Super Bowl Sunday, and despite the fact that we are deep into New England Patriot no onerestaurant is watching s-onterritory, chef-owned football. Instead, fifteen huner “Koz” Kozlowski, chef/owner dred hockey fans are standing on 18 inches of ice. This is February in Meredith, NH. There’s no stadium, no halftime show and no boards on these rinks, which took 4 weeks to hand carve into the frozen waters of Lake Winnipesaukee. Most of the equipment here has been worn through, so that cold fingers escape gloves and helmets have to be passed off between players as they enter or exit the rink. This is the pure sport right here and it’s poised for a comeback. To read the entire film synopsis and to watch the On Frozen trailer please visit www. OnFrozenPonds.com. This film is being crowd funded through a Kickstarter Campaign, to

Official Pond Hockey Classic Tournament Rules We appreciate you taking the time to read the rules and we look

forward to a weekend filled with everyone playing by them!

1. The winner of a captain’s coin toss will determine which goal to defend. Teams will switch goals after first half. 2. All players must wear helmets and hockey skates. Protective equipment is optional but highly recommended. 3. No goalies, goalie equipment or sticks permitted. 4. All teams must have light and dark jerseys or uniforms. 5. All rinks will start and stop on the master horn. 6. Penalties will be called for rule infractions. Penalties called by rink officials are final. A minor penalty will result in possession of the puck awarded to the opposing team. Rink Officials will have the discretion to also award a goal to the opposing team when a minor penalty is flagrant and/or a team is consistently playing in a reckless manner. 7. Any major penalty, which includes any action that could possibly injure another player, will result in that player being ejected from the tournament. The team that received the ejection will play the remainder of the tournament short-handed (3 vs. 4). Rink official will determine major penalties. 8. Abuse of rink officials will be considered a major penalty. This includes yelling, swearing, or arguing about calls. 9. No checking is allowed. Such action will result in a minor penalty unless deemed serious enough to be a major (rink officials discretion). 10. No slapshots allowed. Such action will result in a minor penalty. 11. Players cannot fall or lay on the ice in an effort to protect the goal area. Such action will result in a minor penalty. 12. Goaltending is not allowed. A player may not patrol, “camp out” or remain stationary in the crease area and act as a goaltender. A defender may deflect the puck in the crease area, but the defender must do so while continuing to move through the crease area. The crease area is defined as an imaginary box extending out four feet from the outside corners of the goal. 13. Contacting the puck with a stick above the waist will result in a loss of possession. 14. Saucer passes (i.e. pucks that are lifted low, below the knee) are acceptable. 15. If a puck goes out of bounds, the last team to touch it loses possession. During restart, the defender must give his opponent 2-stick lengths of space. 16. There are no off-sides or icing calls. 17. Goals must be scored from the attacking side of center ice. 18. Rink Officials will call out the score after each goal. This includes goals scored by players or awarded from minor penalties. 19. Teams must give their opponents 1/2 ice after a goal is scored or an infraction takes place. 20. Games will be composed of two 15-minute halves with a 2-minute halftime. 21. Games on Friday and Saturday can end in a tie. However if playoff games end in a tie, the play will move to sudden death format. 22. All games are running-time and substitutions can be made during play (“on-the-fly”) or while a puck is being retrieved. There is no stoppage of play after a goal is scored, or after a penalty is awarded. It is up to each team to ensure that there are only four players on the ice. 23. Players can only play on one team. 24. Substitutions must be made by 8:00 a.m. on the first day of the tournament. No other substitutions throughout the tournament are allowed. The four to six players that are on your roster at 8:00 a.m. on the first day of the event must be the same players that play on your team throughout the tournament. 25. Setting picks in offensive zone is not allowed. Deference will be given to a defender in front of their own net where their progress is impeded by the pick or interference of an offensive player. 26. All players must visibly display their credentials during the game. Players without credentials are not allowed to play. 27. Games start and stop on the master horn, for every minute a team is late they will be penalized a goal. If a team fails to show up for a game they will forfeit the game with the final score of 15-0
