THUNDER BAY -- The Thunder Bay Kings will welcome the top under-13 hockey players in the province next month.
The team on Thursday announced it will host the U13 AAA provincials from April 12 to April 16 at Fort William Gardens, featuring the Kings and six other teams — including champions from the HNO Western Zone, the Greater Toronto Hockey League, the Northern Ontario Hockey Association, Hockey Eastern Ontario, the Ontario Minor Hockey Association and Alliance Hockey.
The top four teams from the round robin will advance to the semifinals, scheduled for April 16.
Tickets go on sale on March 17 at the Fort William Gardens online box office, and cost $55 for a full event package and $16 for a day pass.
Walk-up purchases are also available, starting on April 10.
Organizers are looking for volunteers, a group that already includes honourary chair Carter Hutton.
