TEAM SEATTLE

Seattle Pride Hockey Association hosts a traveling team — humbly named ‘Team Seattle’ — across a variety of team-based tournaments. If you are interested in the opportunity to travel with Team Seattle, drop your information below and we’ll be in touch when there is an opening. We try to travel a few times per calendar year to some of the team-based tournaments listed in our Tournament Directory.

Once you register with Team Seattle, you’re essentially on the team! Each summer/fall, typically prior to the traditional hockey season, we send out a poll to all registered Team Seattle players—whether you’ve played before or not—to gauge interest in upcoming team-based tournaments.

The Tournament Selection Process

Assuming there is strong interest to travel to a city, once the tournament dates are announced and registration opens, Team Seattle follows a two-phased approach:

  1. Priority Registration: Players who participated in the previous year get the first opportunity to register. (If it’s our first time attending a tournament, registration is open to all Team Seattle players first-registered, first-confirmed.)
  2. General Registration: After a couple of weeks, if spots are still available, registration then opens on a first-registered, first-confirmed basis to all remaining Team Seattle players.

Currently, Team Seattle travels to host cities that host full teams. For cities that host individual, draft-style tournaments – like Seattle Pride Classic – you would simply register as a free agent and go through the team drafting process.

Current team-based host tournaments:

  • January: Sin City Classic – Las Vegas, Nevada (currently paused)
  • February: The Palm Springs Int’l Pride Hockey Tournament – Palm Springs, California
  • April: Western Cup – Calgary, Alberta (flipped to draft-style for 2025)
  • May: Chelsea Challenge – New York City, New York (flipped to draft-style for 2025)
  • August: Chicago Market Days Classic – Chicago, Illinois (held every ~2-3 years)
  • September: TCQHA Salad Classic – Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota
  • October: Canada Cup – Toronto, Ontario
