The 2011 participants and results are published here for your refererence. If you are considering participation in the 2012 Tournament, please contact the Tournament Directors immediately to discuss format and other arrangements.

This tournament is about a boy, son, who loved the game of hockey.  His love for the game was really a love for the idea of a team.  He loved his team.   He was a team player in the true sence of the word.  To him, hockey was all about working together, playing together, sacraficing together for the common good of the team.  Through this idea we should all learn that life is about  the "team".

This tournament is also about loss and what that means.  Adam lost his life in an automobile accident when he was a Junior at Dubllin Coffman High School.  This was a big loss for the "team".  We, his parents lost a son,  our children lost a brother, everyone else lost a friend and a teammate.  Everyone, that day, lost a very real portion of themselves.

Since that day,  I have learned how important our relationships are, friends, family, siblings, teammates, aquaintances.  We are so important to each other.  We really are made up of little pieces of our relationships.  All of our interactions become a real part of us and remain such our entire lives.

I think the lesson to learn here is how very special, important  and integral we are to everyone of our friends and they to us.  I know at times each of us thinks we are so unimportant and disconnected and that we may not have friends and no one cares about us.  The reality is we are ever so importantant and special to each other.  We, and they, often don't know or think of this, but it is true.  We only learn this with the loss of a loved one.

This tournament is about friendship and remembering to take care of it.  You are so greatly loved and so important in all of your relationships that you need to take great care of yourself.

Happiness is a full team.  Work hard.  Play hard.  Have fun.  Most of all, take care of yourself and your teammates.

Following the untimely death of their son Adam who was a hockey player for the Dublin Club Hockey Team, the Allgeyer family encouraged supporters to make donations in Adam's name to the Dublin High School Hockey Association (DHSHA). With these contributions, DHSHA established and is the custodian of a separate Allgeyer Fund. One of the purposes of the Allgeyer Fund is to provide scholarships of financial assistance to families that may not be able to afford the annual cost of Ice Hockey. Consideration is given to any player or parent who makes a request in writing, by telephone or by email.  All requests should be directed to the Association President. The President will, convene the Allgeyer Scholarship Committee. The Association's Treasurer will be a standing member of the Committee. The President will be a non-voting member of the Committee however will facilitate the decision making process. All information provided to the Committee is anonymous. The Committee will confidentially review and respond to all requests. A response from the Committee may require an interview with the player and/or the player's parent(s). Eligibility and consideration will be based on the availability of funds, number of requests, and academic eligibility of the player.
