Here is what they said about our tournaments!

I just wanted to let you know how much the Rockets enjoyed the April Showers tournament. The teams we played were well matched and we had a blast in all three games. This was our first tournament and you made it a wonderful experience for us.

We had such a great time at April Showers that we are already planning for next year! It was our first tournament as a team...you'd think we had one the Olympics!!!
Thanks again for a great weekend-you guys did an amazing job putting it all together!

I wish to also express my appreciation that your organization provides an opportunity for "Well-Aged" women (in the words of the April Showers program) to experience the exuberance and fun of hockey, a sport unavailable to us in our childhoods.
