MSH is looking for players to participate in the upcoming USA Hockey Special Hockey Classic in Wayne, New Jersey on Nov. 7-9th, 2025. The Special Hockey Classic is an annual event celebrating special hockey, bringing together players and teams from all over the country for a week of camaraderie and fun on and off the ice. 

Details:

Games will be held at the Ice Vault in Wayne, New Jersey.  All players are responsible for their own transportation, meals and hotel.  However, there is a $300 travel stipend for each MSH player that participates with MSH in the tournament.  These funds will be paid after the tournament is complete. Only MSH players who participate in all of their games at the tournament are eligible to receive the $300 travel stipend.  Hotel information will be sent out when we receive the player's registration and we have a complete team registered. Game schedules will be sent out once teams are formed.

The Special Hockey Classic will have an Opening Ceremony with a live band, Honor Guard, buffet dinner for players and coaches, special guests, and a very special limited USA Hockey jersey honoring Johnny and Matthew Gaurdreau for every player participating in the Classic. Players will also receive discount tickets to the American Dream Mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey where there is indoor snow skiing, wave pool and swimming, amusement park rides, and much more for players and families.

Cost:  There will be a $50 non-refundable fee charged at the time of registration.  This fee will be used to cover tournament registration.
