Until we know how many teams we end up with in each division we cannot say. However, we solicit schedule requests and try to draft schedules that assist players/teams with other activities that conflict. We almost never play Fridays. We meet the vast majority of schedule requests, however its impossible to meet all requests.
Normally there is one game a week played. However, there are occasionally 2 games played in a week. Teams sometimes wish to skip a week due to other commitments and this can cause a week with 2 games played. This isn’t common though.
We do what we can to meet every schedule request. However, with the dozens of requests received we cannot possibly meet all of the requests. However, we do meet the vast majority of requests.
When you register your kids on-line you will be asked if you are registering as an independent player. If you answer yes, another question will ask you if you have anyone you wish to play with. We then make every effort to place these players on the same team. Usually works out.
In Initiation the goalie position changes every game so by the end of the season everyone plays goal once. In Novice there usually is a full-time goalie, however that is up to the team manager and other team parents to decide. You can rotate or have one player designated as the goalie – it’s up to you.
No. We only provide goalie gear in Initiation. However, we can loan goalie gear to Novice teams on an emergency basis. Assuming the gear meant for Initiation fits your Novice aged player.
The jersey numbers will be numbered from 1 to whatever number of players you register over 11. Min 11 jerseys supplied. ie. #’s 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11 & so on. Their jersey number will be the number of the jersey that fits that player.
In Initiation we supply a goalie jersey. So you will have one designated goalie jersey for whoever is goaltending each game.
You can secure your team’s spot by registering your team and then registering and paying for 1 player on the team. Then, as long as you have found at least 11 players and they have paid by March 10th, we can assist you with finding the last 2 players.
Teams may have 10 to 13 players (1 goalie & 9 to 12 skaters)
The Team fee is divided by whatever number of players that are on your team’s roster, the team fee is split between 10-13 players.
In response to the feedback we have received over the last few seasons, we have modified how we breakdown team fees for the 2026 season.
Player fee amounts have been modified this season to reflect the average team size over the last several seasons. The fees are now split between whatever number of players your team has. Therefore, after ice cost increases, a team of 13 players is cheaper per player than last season, 12 is the same and 11 players is more.
This change will ensure we can fit the maximum number of teams into the league and reduce the amount of wait-listed players that don’t find a team. With limited ice availability, this change is our only option for growth in player roster spots.
Yes. As long as their skills allow for them to safely and competitively play in that division. This is limited to playing up 2 divisons ie. from Division IV to Division III or II, unless permission is received from the league.
Yes. As long as their skills allow for them to safely and competitively play in that division. We have had high end female teams play up a division. And if a female team wishes to play down a division this is allowed as well.
All divisions are full ice!
The season runs from April 1st to the 2nd or 3rd week of June.
