The Nice Hockey Côte d’Azur organized an international tournament for young players under 10 years old this past weekend. For the 2013 edition, 4 foreign teams made the trip: Karhu-Kissat and the Swiss teams from Saint-Imier, Monthey, and a joint team from Lausanne-Villars-Morges. On the French side, the Rapaces de Gap and two Nice teams completed this rather competitive lineup.
After the round-robin matches, the highly contested final phases saw the Finnish team emerge victorious over Saint-Imier, while Nice1 was ranked fourth and Nice2 seventh.
After 50 matches played on the ice of Jean Bouin, all participants gathered for the award ceremony. Despite the fatigue, all these young hockey players were smiling, a sign of an exciting and very enriching weekend.
