IHL 25+ Evals Scheduled
The IHL level is our marquee league and is a competitive 25+ league designed for players with higher level playing backgrounds. The top players in this league played at the Junior A or Collegiate level. The average players in this league played travel club hockey growing up. If, through the evaluation process, our GM's feel that you would not be a fit in the IHL level you will be given the option to play in the FHL instead. The FHL is designed for older players, recreational players and those newer to the game. If you are new to the IHL register here.

Evaluations
Players new to the league must skate in one of the evaluations. The evaluation skates are just a pick up game but the IHL league GM's are present and will evaluate each new player and assign a ranking to be used at our draft. This ensures that we have the correct player profile for each player in the draft.
- $10.00 per skate.
- All players must present their 2019-20 USA Hockey insurance to be allowed on the ice.
- Goaltenders are scheduled for these skates and must contact Jerry Fronek before attending.
