The 6th annual Dot Pot roller hockey tournament returned to the new Garvey Park the weekend of Oct. 9 and 10, with the purpose of having two fun days of roller hockey on the new rink at Garvey, and also to raise money for charity. There were 16 teams from the neighborhood and from all over Greater Boston, according to Co-Directors Peter Cahill, Ryan Sweeney, and Timmy Galvin. The tournament was put on hiatus officially last year due to Covid-19, and took place in the fall instead of the summer this year.

Goalie Brendan Clancy was at the ready, while teammate Peter Cahill stood by.

However, many people found their way to play and watch the action all weekend long, raising money for Dot Pot Scholarship Fund – which goes in part toward supporting Dorchester Youth Hockey, Dorchester Little League Baseball, and Project D.E.E.P.

The two days of action on the roller hockey rink turned out to be greatly positive for the neighborhood, the youth organizations, and everyone in attendance.
