The first-ever ice hockey tournament in Plymouth was a huge success with five teams from the city competing in the Thunder Puck Cup at the Plymouth Pavilions.

The event was a great opportunity for Plymouth teams to play some competitive ice hockey against each other and also welcome in some new faces!

The Major Cup trophy saw three teams – Plymouth Eclipse, Plymouth Phoenix and Plymouth Rock Stars – compete in a two round robin competition with some very close matchups along the way.

The top two teams, Phoenix and Rock Stars, had to get through two previous matches to make the final where Rock Stars ran out 3-1 winners. 

The games between entry level teams Eclipse Blue Jackets and Eclipse Black Jackets were closely contested but the Blue team under Adam Perona-Wright’s guidance won both games 2 – 1 and 2 – 0 to take the Thunder Puck Challenger Cup trophy.
