Flying Elbows Hockey Tournament returning to Shawville this weekend

The Flying Elbows Hockey Tournament will return to the Shawville arena this weekend, with 18 teams duking it out across two divisions from Thursday to Saturday.

Organizer Will Armitage explained that the tournament is a long-standing tradition, and a big fundraiser for the arena. Over the years, the proceeds have been used to purchase a score clock and new boards, among other things.

The tournament finals will be held Saturday night starting at 9 p.m. and there will be live entertainment upstairs in the Lion’s Hall.

Armitage thanked the team of volunteers that help put the event together every year.
