– Never Summer, 686, Snowboard Colorado, PBR and Monster Energy are proud to announce the third annual SIA/SOS Shootout is a go.  Set to go down on Wednesday January 25th, the game will kick off the SIA tradeshow in Denver, Colorado. The competitive hockey game benefiting SOS Outreach, will feature all kinds of snowboard industry heads from the US and Canada, ready to square off before the show.

The Shootout is open to anyone who can skate hard – spectators are encouraged to attend, especially if they like great cold beer and good “beer league” hockey.  Each team is made up of a max of 15 players plus goalies.  PBR is generously providing the brew and Monster is helping to kick it up a notch with the donation of your favorite energy drinks. A suggested donation of $2 per can for the spectators and $20/player goes straight to SOS Outreach.

Last year we had NHL Alumni Joe Sakic, Derek Armstrong, Scott Parker and Phil Crowe participating, making this the coolest fantasy camp anyone ever attended. No telling who from the big leagues will show up this year, but don’t miss out on the chance to smash your favorite rep, shop employee or industry vet into the boards while dangling your way to the net.  The Shootout will take place at the Foothills Ice Arena in Lakewood, Colorado.  Don’t have a car?  Stay tuned as info on a shuttle between convention center and rink will be announced soon.
