Milwaukee/Wauwatosa, WI (Saturday January 25, 2025) – The Center Street Hoser’s Mid-Winter Classic will return this Saturday January 25th starting at 10am at Center Street Park on the Milwaukee-Wauwatosa border. This will be the eighth time the puck has dropped in this tournament.

This day-long event has grown into an annual tradition for Milwaukee’s local amateur hockey scene. This year’s tournament will pit teams against each other in a classic pond hockey format. Teams will vie for the honor of taking home the Hoser Cup—a vintage, mid-century hockey trophy, with a storied past in Eastern Europe, that’s been given new life through this tournament.

All proceeds from the event go directly to supporting the ice rink at Center Street Park.

For the most up-to-date information on the ice rink and tournament, visit the Friends of Center Street Park’s Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/CenterStreetPark.

Our park brings this corner of the city together to enjoy the outdoors. The ice rink at Center Street Park is built and maintained by a group of volunteers dubbed the Center Street Hosers.
