CAN/AM has secured room blocks at Annapolis hotels for your team to choose from. Your families will make and pay for their hotel reservations right on the CAN/AM Hockey website. These rates are valid until 60 days prior to the event. Teams failing to reserve rooms at least 60 days out may see rates greater than the published rates.
All out of town teams and their members (players, parents, coaches, guests) will be required to utilize a minimum total of 20 room nights during the tournament (for example 10 rooms per night, for two nights, would result in 20 room nights during the tournament). Tournament fees are based on teams meeting this requirement. Teams failing to meet the minimum number of room nights will be charged $50 per room night short.
Prices listed above include hotel, tournament, and gate fees for the weekend. Hotel fees, taxes, and gratuity are included. Depending on hotel selection, your room will have either a queen/queen, double/double, king/sofa bed or queen/sofa. Parking, cots, and other incidentals will be the responsibility of the individual incurring these charges.
