"My name is Rob Gibson and I came over with the Korea team. It was my first time to participate in the Yamato Cup and it was a total blast. I just want to say thanks to all of the people who put in the time and effort organizing it. The level of competition was pretty intense and out of the six teams in it, four could have easily won the Cup...The party in the Hobgoblin was also very well done. The food was just what the doctor ordered after a hard day at the rink. All of the award winners were deserving of their awards too!"

"I never thanked either of you guys for the awesome job you did putting the whole Yamato Cup together. I know I was part of the organizing committee, but the effort you two put into it all resulted in a fantastic weekend for everyone involved."

"The hospitality of the TSHA was great and unmatched by any tournament host to date for the CBHK. The TSHA went above and beyond what was required of a host. Let's send a warm thanks to the TSHA boys and then continue the flow of trash talk until the next spring. So thanks a lot Tokyo boys. It was greatly appreciated!"

"I had a great time being a Boring Sponge! Thanks for putting me on the team, I had almost the right jersey in my bag for it too. Next time time let's go for 3rd place if not the top spot."
