The 28th Annual Raymond A. Robinson Memorial Youth Hockey Tournament will be held January 15-18, 2009.  The Tournament is named after the son of our former City Manager and a player in the Cleveland Heights Hockey League.  Raymond was involved in a fatal non-hockey accident at his home, and a fund was created to honor hom and his love for hockey.

The Raymond A. Robinson Fund enables us to purchase and provide equipment for first year players.  This has enabled many children, who might not otherwise be able to, to participate in the game of hockey and learn to love it as Raymond did.

The primary source of funding is the annual tournament, through entry fees, ads sold for the tournament program, and tournament souvenirs and raffles.  Our goal is to provide even, competetive play and a comforatble, fun atmosphere for the players, parents, and fans.

 If you are interested in attending the tournament, please download a registration form, complete and return with a non-refundable $200 deposit.  Applications recieved prior to December 12, 2008 will recieve $50 discount on their entry fee.  If you are interested in purchasing a full or partial page advertisement or have any other questions, please email the tournament director Chris Kendel.
