Registration Now Open for the 8U Athens Outdoor Classic 2025

Welcome to Southern Hockey Tournaments! We are the South's exclusive outdoor tournament company providing an experience for ice hockey players like no other. Register for an event and come be a part of the fun!

To say that the Outdoor Classic Hockey Tournament in Athens, GA is one of the best tournaments available for youth hockey in the south, would be a huge understatement.  It is one of the best 'hockey experiences' that any young hockey player could have - especially one growing up in the southern USA.  This is grassroots hockey at its finest and being able to share this experience with my team for the past two seasons has been a highlight of my coaching career.  Kevin &  Julissa work tirelessly to make sure that everything runs smoothly and that each and every player, coach and parent thoroughly enjoys this amazing hockey experience.  I highly recommend this experience to any and all teams that can make it happen - I know that you won't be disappointed. 

Garth Premak, Head Coach, Charleston Jr Stingrays Bantam A,

 I just wanted to thank you for an unforgettable hockey weekend.. Every one on your staff was amazing with the kids, including the officials.. I have been involved with hockey for 34 years and that was the most enjoyment I have had since playing in the 2010 Turner cup championships in the IHL.. Just wanted to let you know how great of an experience you provided not only for the kids but for the families as well.. Look forward to seeing you next year.. Thanks again and God
Bless.
