Annual Outside Debut of Culdesac Hockey

The Annual Outside Debut of Culdesac Hockey takes place on the first Monday of each March. This is the half-way point of the HCHA regular season, and switches each matches' venue to be hosted outdoors rather than indoors. This creates a very unique decision to have your players be better more indoors or outdoors, which many other sports do not have.

Match Traditions

Due to the debut being pulled into use on a specific day each year, fans have found a way to really get invested into the switch via traditions. This makes the sort of harsh change between venues a little easier to get used to, because if you're a fan of the sport, you will likely view all three games and will adjust your eyes to the different environment.

The debut has ranked in Hiblund as one of the highest viewership counts in all subjects, especially sports. The very first matchup included some of the better teams in the league at the time to attract major attention, and it succeeded immensely. Since then, the home teams have stayed the same each year to start giving this sporting event a form of history and tradition. Once again, they succeeded, as every game played has bought more tickets and brought in more viewers than ever before.

Match 1

The first match of each outside debut takes host in Trinalxii and their literal culdesac venue. The reasons for Trinalxii hosting the first outdoor game are few yet convincing. First of all, their stadium is an actual abandoned culdesac, unlike any other stadium, which draws attention towards its uniqueness. Secondly, the sport itself was invented not too far from this location, in fact still in the same city. These two factors have led this to be the second most viewed match of the sport on average. Since Trinalxii is usually a top half team, on top of all the crowd support from locals, the Roundtables will win most of the matches here, and their most common opponent is the Havdren Leopards with 5 appearances in this event.
