Before the team books
- Ask your event if it is stay-to-play, and whether a team block already exists.
- Call the hotel about breakfast hours: 7 a.m. games often start before the buffet opens.
- Ask about parking for team vans or trailers, and a late checkout on the last day.
- Ask the front desk where wet gear can dry overnight: hockey bags and a small room don't mix.
