The Tournament was a Canadian television series, which aired on CBC Television in 2005 and 2006. The series, a mockumentary show about a community minor hockey team, depicted the behind-the-scenes interactions between the players, their parents and coaches as the team competed for a spot in the annual youth hockey championship tournament. The cast included Alain Goulem, Paula Boudreau, Christian Potenza, Emily Tilson and Ari Cohen. Seven episodes were produced in the 2004-05 television season, airing in the winter of 2005, and ten episodes were produced in the 2005-06 season. The CBC announced on February 13, 2006, that the show would not be brought back for the 2006-07 television season.

Christian Potenza's unhinged coach energy is uncomfortably perfect.
Writing
Mockumentary format lets parents hang themselves beautifully.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Christian Potenza later voiced Chris McLean in Total Drama Island, essentially playing the same chaotic energy for kids.
This quietly predicted the youth sports industrial complex years before Netflix's Hockeyland made it mainstream documentary fodder.
