The countdown to the 42nd annual Flyers Cup tournament has officially begun with the revelation of the teams that are eligible to be selected for the tournament field.
The Flyers Cup Committee revealed a list of 64 tournament-eligible teams on Thursday morning.
The 64 teams represent the InterCounty Scholastic Hockey League, the Suburban High School Hockey League, the Atlantic Prep Athletic Conference, the Lehigh Valley Scholastic Hockey league, and the state of Delaware.
There will be four brackets: Class A for public schools with enrollments of 625 males or fewer (based on PIAA enrollment figures); Class AA for public schools with male enrollments exceeding 625, Class AAA for private schools, and girls.
Tournament play is scheduled to begin on Monday, April 5. The number of teams that will comprise each bracket has yet to be determined by the Flyers Cup Committee.
The Flyers Cup is an invitational tournament and there are no automatic bids.
Last year’s tournament was called off prior to completion because of Covid-19 issues.
