Our season runs from early October to mid-March.  Our home ice slot is Sunday nights at 7:15 PM.  Away games vary but are generally on Saturday or Sunday nights.  We usually play 18-20 games per season, plus an additional 6-8 practices.

What are the costs involved with joining the team?

The fee for the season is $750, with a $250 deposit required to hold a place on the team.  In addition, players are responsible for registering with USA Hockey, and any fees incurred with that registration.

All games and practices are included.  In addition, you will be issued a home uniform with a personalized jersey and matching socks.  (An away jersey and socks may be purchased as well, if you choose.)

We have between 15-18 players on the team per year.

How do players who don’t drive get to the games?

We use a carpool system to insure that no player gets left behind.
