Confederation Cup
The Confederation Cup High School Hockey Tournament started in 1999 with 28 teams participating and has grown ever since to 48 teams competing in 2014. The tournament provides a unique opportunity for corporate partners to become involved in an event grown to become a major feature in High School Athletics and one of Atlantic Canada’s largest hockey tournaments. Our excellent reputation for providing an enjoyable and rewarding experience for players, team and school officials and parents is evidenced by the number of returning teams and new applicants that we have each year.

Royal St. John’s Regatta
Held annually on the first Wednesday in August, this historic regatta is the oldest continuing sporting event in North America, dating back to 1818. The event continues to draw in excess of 50,000 spectators each year and is a major focal point of summer activities in the St. John’s area. It is widely known as “The Largest Garden Party in the World” because it has been about socializing as much as amateur sport. Concession stands, wheels of fortune, games of chance, and food & drink are just as much part of the Regatta’s history as the races.
