Practices

An average week of hockey consists of:

  • 1 team practice
  • 1 multi-team skill session run by Driscoll Skills and Skating instructors
  • 1-2 games (typically on the weekend)

Games

Each team will participate in the Valley League parity round games at the beginning of the season before being slotted into skill-appropriate levels for regular season play. Valley League teams are also eligible to advance to the Valley League playoffs at the end of the season.

Tournament Play

Additionally, most teams choose to participate in the State Playdown Tournament. Coaches are responsible for registering teams and will work in concert with their bracket opponents to secure a game time and location. Costs beyond the first playdown game will be covered by the team.

Coaches are also responsible for determining if the team would like to travel to a supplemental tournament outside of the VHL and State Tournament play. All costs will be covered by individual participants.

Jerseys

Jerseys are purchased by the player's families. Jerseys may be purchased through the team store.
