The Elite Club Challenge
The Rhino-Turf Elite Club Challenge
17-20 JULY 2025
There’s a reason we call it the Rhino-Turf Elite Club Challenge. It’s not just about who can play. It’s about who can write their name into hockey folklore – and, at Riverside, the stories practically wrote themselves.
Finals Day always brings pressure. But this year? It brought legacy. And if you weren’t watching, you missed something special. This wasn’t just a hockey tournament. It was a showcase of what club hockey can be. Because here at the Rhino-Turf Elite Club Challenge, this is where legacy lives.
The 2025 Rhino-Turf Elite Club Challenge will be remembered for so much.
