Copa Fin del Mundo
The Copa Fin del Mundo (in English, End of the World Cup) is a tournament staged in Ushuaia, Argentina. The tournament is known as the End of the World Cup as its host city of Ushuaia is generally regarded as the southernmost city in the world.
History
It was first contested in 2005 and was called the Encuentro Nacional de Hockey sobre Hielo Infantil, but was given its current name during the event.[1]
Matches were originally played at the Laguna Diablo natural ice rink, where ice was only available for several weeks during the year. In 2009, a new refrigerated outdoor rink opened in Ushuaia, on the same site as an Olympic-sized facility that was built in 1979.
The tournament was exclusively a youth competition until 2010, when the Libre (open/senior) division was added. The Damas (women's) tournament debuted the following year. The 2010 tournament was played at the new rink and was the first championship staged on a full-sized (Olympic) rink in Argentina and throughout South America. Prior to 2010, the Copa Fin del Mundo was staged between the local Club Andino Ushuaia squad and ACEMHH (Asociación Civil Escuela Metropolitana de Hockey sobre Hielo) from the capital of Buenos Aires. The Winter Club de Patinaje sobre Hielo Asociación Civil (WCHH) made its debut that year.
In 2013, the tournament was made open to international teams for the first time. Two foreign teams (313 Brasil of Brazil and Los Nordicos of Chile) participated in the competition. The 2014 Copa Fin del Mundo was held over two weeks, with all competitions but the new international senior division (Mayores Internacional de Clubes) taking place from July 16-24. The international competition was staged from August 6-10.
