Don’t wait until Dec. 19, 20 and 21 to do your holiday shopping. Not because the stores will be packed, but because that’s the weekend of a slew of major New England boys prep hockey tournaments.

Every year, right before Christmas, a number of the region’s top prep teams take the ice to battle for holiday tournament trophies.

This season is no different, although a bit later than last year.

Most of these tournaments are historic. The Flood-Marr is one year shy of hitting 60. This will be the 50th Groton/Lawrence Holiday Tournament. It’s also the 41st season of the Avon Old Farms Holiday Classic.

This page has schedules for all tournaments taking place before Christmas and will be updated throughout with results.
