Main Trading Hub

While pin trading can happen anywhere in the arena, the heart of the action will be located between Rinks 2 & 3 in the upper lobby at Bloomington Ice Gardens. That’s where the buzz will be—so swing by, swap pins, and soak up the excitement!


PLAYER OF THE GAME Spotlight!

After every thrilling matchup, one standout athlete from the winning team will be crowned our “PLAYER OF THE GAME”! The announcer will fire up the crowd as they reveal the honoree’s name, followed by a special moment—receiving a custom-designed Player of the Game pin, generously sponsored by Willy McCoys of Bloomington!

 

But that’s not all—our MVP will strike a pose for a victory photo, which will be proudly featured on our Tournament Facebook page all weekend long.

Fame, glory, and bragging rights await!

 

Rules for how the POG gets picked:

THE LUCKY TICKET

The Pin Hunt Isn’t Over Yet… Think you’ve collected them all? Think again! There’s one final, ultra-exclusive pin still out there—the LUCKY TICKET PIN—and it’s waiting to be discovered during a weekend packed with hockey, trading, and unforgettable fun.

 

 
️‍Two Ways to Find It:

1️⃣ The Rink Hunt: Keep your eyes peeled—this pin is hiding somewhere around the rink! It could be tucked high, stashed low, or cleverly camouflaged. 25 pins will be hidden throughout the weekend, just waiting for players, siblings, or families to uncover them. Find one and head to the Pin Board Raffle Table to claim a Willy McCoy’s coupon and snap a victory photo for our Facebook page!

 

2️⃣ The Willy McCoy’s Secret: Head over to Willy McCoy’s of Bloomington with your crew and enjoy a delicious meal. For every tab of $25 or more, ask your server for “THE LUCKY TICKET”—for your chance to score the coveted pin. ⚠️ Quantities are limited, and once they’re gone… they’re gone for good. So, grab your teammates, fuel up, and claim your exclusive LUCKY TICKET PIN before it disappears!
