What to know

Can I book my own hotel? Not if you are an out-of-town team (checked 2026-10-19): the host says teams whose home rink is more than 70 miles away must book through MYHockey Tournaments. The Seatac Presidents Day Cup runs Sat Feb 13 to Mon Feb 15, 2027, over the holiday weekend.

The page lists Tacoma Twin Rinks, 2645 S 80th St, Tacoma, WA 98409, as the only rink. Divisions run from 10U to 18U, and the host guarantees four games with a cap of five to six.

Entry runs $1,950 for 10U up to $2,300 for 16U and 18U at full price. Falling short of the 24 room nights keeps a team out of semi-final and championship play, and cancelling inside 30 days earns no refund.
