The 2023 Blue Note Cup will host Championship Weekend at Centene Community Ice Center, March 4-5.

BLUE NOTE CUP HISTORY

Each year the Missouri Hockey Youth Division has hosted a season ending Championship Tournament for all teams participating in the Youth Division Travel (A1 thru C) Leagues. AAA and Central States teams in non-National bound age groups also have division Championships as part of the tournament. For many years the tournament was known as the State Championship Tournament or the SCT. In 2017 Missouri Hockey Youth Division and the St Louis Blues teamed up to take the tournament to another level. The event is now be called the Blue Note Cup – Missouri Youth Hockey Championship.

The Blues’ “Blues For Kids” program had given a significant contribution towards the tournament’s operating budget. In addition, in probably the biggest change for the tournament the Blues will be donating a trophy that will be awarded to each Champion. The winning team will be engraved on the trophy and the winners will be allowed to display the trophy in their rink for the year. The individual awards that have been used in the past will also remain.

We are truly grateful for the Blues joining the tournament and believe that an event that has been very well received will now take another step forward. The tournament committee wishes all teams good luck in their regular season games and look forward to seeing you at the Blue Note Cup.
