Fayetteville Marksmen News Release


[FAYETTEVILLE, N.C.] – The Fayetteville FireAntz of the Southern Professional Hockey League (SPHL) announced Thursday that the club will be playing in an intrasquad game on Wednesday, October 27th at 7:30 at the Cleland Ice Rink on Ft. Bragg.

The "Fire On Ice" game will be a unique opportunity for fans to come see the FireAntz battle against each other to make the team. With the NHL lockout and reallocation of players throughout the various levels of minor league hockey, there are 30 players expected in camp, which begins on October 25th. The roster limit for the SPHL is 18 players.

"There will be a much higher level of intensity in the ‘Fire On Ice' game than a normal exhibition game." Head Coach Derek Booth said, "Guys are competing for their jobs and it will produce an exciting atmosphere."

Tickets for the game can be bought at the door for $5. There will be no pre-sale. Doors open at 6:45 for the 7:30 game and tickets will be sold on a first-come first-serve basis. It is recommended that fans arrive early for the game, as seating is limited.

SEASON TICKET HOLDERS: Season Tickets books will be available for pick-up on Monday, October 25th from 5-7 pm and Tuesday, October 26th also from 5-7 pm. Season ticket holders may come by the FireAntz office located at 220 A. North McPherson Church Road in Fayetteville, located next to the Olive Garden.

Season tickets, mini-plans and group tickets for the 2004-05 season are now available. Great seat locations still remain. Contact the FireAntz office at (910) 321-0123 for more information.
