ON THE POND! CANADA
On The Pond! Canada was founded in 2007 by Rob Carleton, former Marketing Manager for Boston Pizza. Rob launched the first pond hockey tournament on Lake Muskoka, in front of Gravenhurst Boston Pizza, to boost business during a quiet February weekend. That year, we hosted 18 teams across six rinks. Fast forward 19 years, and the North American Cup (NAC) now boasts 20 rinks and over 100 teams! Since our start, OTP Canada has expanded to host a variety of tournaments across Ontario, including the NAC, PA Day Cups, Santa Cup, Easter Cup, and many more for both youth and adults.

YOUTH TOURNAMENTS
On The Pond! Canada has been hosting exciting youth hockey tournaments in the Peterborough area for several years. Our PA Day & Holiday Tournaments are one-day events where individual players sign up instead of full teams. Players submit their age, skill level, and position, and we create evenly matched, co-ed teams for a day of fun and competitive hockey! Skill levels are mixed on each team, so players meet new teammates, and by the end of the day, they’ve made new friends while sharpening their hockey skills.
