Participants
Four players per squad.
Procedure/Rules
Four destructible styrofoam targets 15 inches in diameter are attached to the goal posts, one target in each corner of the goal.
Two players, one on each side of the goal, alternately pass four pucks each to a shooter positioned 25 feet out from the goal line.
The shooter has a maximum of eighteen seconds to shoot up to eight pucks in an attempt to hit each of the four targets.
Any contact of a target by a puck that is shot is scored as a hit. Multiple hits on the same target do not increase the shooter's score. Passes that are not received by the shooter qualify as attempts.
Scoring
One goal to individual winner's squad
One goal to squad with most targets hit in fewest shots.
Tie Situation
In the event of a tie between squads, each squad will receive one goal.
In the event of a tie between individual shooters, each squad will receive one goal.

Participants
Three players per squad.
Procedure/Rules

Players must complete the course. If they do not, their squad is disqualified from the event and shall concede a goal to the opposing squad.
Winners are determined by electric eyes that record time in thousandths of a second. The clock is automatically started and stopped by the motion of the player. In case of a clock malfunction, the official time will be recorded by the referee's stopwatch.
Scoring
One goal is awarded to the squad with the best average time.
One goal is awarded to the individual winner's squad.

Participants
Four players per squad.
Procedure/Rules
A puck is positioned on the ice 30 feet from the center of the goal. A player, starting no further than the nearest blue line, may skate towards the puck and shoot it from its positioned spot into the goal. The highest recorded shot (in mph) of two attempts will be scored.
Shots must be on goal to be calculated and all shots are recorded by radar in miles per hour.
If a puck enters the goal uncalculated due to a malfunction of the radar equipment, the shooter will be allowed an additional attempt.
Scoring
The squad with the best average score in mph, determined by using each participant's highest recorded shot, will receive one goal.
The player with the highest recorded shot in mph will be deemed the individual winner and his squad will receive one goal.
Tie Situation
In the event of a tie, the player with the highest mph average will be declared the winner and have one goal awarded to his squad.
If there is a tie in the average score of the squads, each team will be awarded one goal.

Participants
Race One involves three players (two forwards, one defenseman) per squad participating in a relay.
The second player participating in Race One must be a defenseman.
Race Two is a one-on-one match race involving a player from each squad.
Procedure
At the referee's whistle, a player from each squad skates in a straight line from the starting line to the goal line at the far end of the rink.
Once there, he picks up a puck and maneuvers it around pylons along a prescribed course and toward the starting line. When the player in control of the puck makes contact with the starting line with one skate, the next player on his squad proceeds through the same exercise. The first squad to have all three of its members successfully complete the drill wins.
The second player participating in Race One must skate backwards to the center line and then forwards to the far goal line.
Race Two is conducted according to the same guidelines, but as a one-on-one match race.

Rules
All players begin with both skates behind the starting line.
A squad will be disqualified for incorrect running of the course.
A player must be in control of the puck upon finishing the course and before the next player on his team may proceed, or that respective squad faces disqualification.
If, at any time, a player loses control of the puck, the player must regain control and return to the point where control was lost before continuing through the balance of the course.
Each squad is allowed one false start at the beginning of a race.
A second false start will disqualify the offending player's squad.
If a relay partner (2nd or 3rd skater) commits a false start, that player's squad is disqualified.
If there is a false start by relay partners on both squads the race will be re-run.

Skaters are separated into three groups of six skaters per squad.
Each group has 45 seconds in which each skater must proceed in on a breakaway against the goaltender of the opposing squad. Squads will alternate groups.
Rebounds are allowed only if the skater is moving continuously in a forward direction.
A skater in any group may not proceed until the skater preceding him has cleared the blue line and entered the neutral zone after his breakaway attempt.
Scoring
All goals scored count towards squad's total score.
Goaltenders
The goaltenders' individual save records are combined with the final Pass and Score event to determine the winner of the goaltender competition.
