The Tournament

The Tournament

| 22 min

Over the course of a weekend tournament, youth sledge hockey teams from the U.S. and Canada battle for supremacy. Designed for players who have a physical challenge, the fundaments of the sport — passing, shooting, trash talking your opponents – remain the same. Director Sam Vint captures the end-to-end action as the Manitoba Sledgehammers do it all.

    Hey Sam, It's Diane and Jim Coulter, we just watched your film and we loved it. It made me remember when I was young watching my brother playing hockey. If we are in town this winter we would love to come and watch a game. Hi to all your family.
