Fundraise. Play. Win.

Like any good tournament the rules for winning are based on both skill and talent. Skill in the game and talent in fundraising.

In fact, fundraising is key:

• The first 900 players to fundraise a minimum of $100 qualify for the tourney. The tournament begins on the 15th, but you can join at any time up to November 5 as long as you raise the minimum $100. Once you join, you can 'catch up' by scheduling in games against any other player in your league.
• Next, the top fundraiser is one of only two players to advance from your league of 30 players to the Championship Round. So keep fundraising all the way through to November 5 (or November 14 for Championship Round players or Fundraisers aiming for the most funds raised).
• Finally, you need to fundraise a minimum of $500 by November 14th to qualify for a chance at the top prize of getting your face in EA Sports' NHL®10.

Now, about those prizes...
There are four levels of prizes for tournament players, all based around how well you've fundraised and played. The prize structure is listed below (note: one prize per player):

Win without playing
You don't have to play to win. The top fundraiser — whether they play or don't play in the tournament — will also win the grand prize of getting their face in NHL®10 and a personal tour of EA in Vancouver BC.
