Sand County Classic


  • Sand Valley 597 Leopold Way Nekoosa, WI, 54457 United States (map)
 
 


Today we are sharing some unfortunate news as we continue to experience an unseasonably warm winter season. Like many other pond hockey tournaments in the region, the 2024 Sand County Classic has been canceled.

Safety will always be our top priority for players, spectators, and staff. Keeping this as our priority, we have determined that the warm weather will prevent us from being able to ensure safe playing conditions on our lakes & ponds.

. . .

As we turn the page, the excitement for next year’s event, to be held Jan. 31 - Feb. 2, is already building. The 2025 Sand County Classic promises to be our biggest, most anticipated tournament yet!
