How does House League Convening work?

By |2021-03-27T15:15:51-04:00March 26th, 2021|

House League Convening is the process of ensuring both your child and the entire team are playing at the correct league level (red/white/blue/green) to be competitive. This takes place after evaluations, and is generally a seven week period where members from all MHL associations ensure the evaluation process has placed players and teams at the correct skill level. During this period there may be entire team or individual player movement between levels to ensure the season is fun and competitive. What are my options if I am unhappy with the impending results of convening? Please remember, hockey is a team sport! Please speak [...]

Why is my child only playing a few minutes per game?

By |2022-12-07T02:46:46-05:00June 7th, 2016|

It is the policy of the MHL that all house league players receive equitable ice time during games. Remember, ice time will vary per game, with between 8 and 12 minutes per game considered normal (depending upon penalties and other game factors).  Prior to speaking with the coaching staff or association, please determine: Is this a regular occurrence? When your child appears to receive less ice time, how were they feeling that day? If the coach notices your child is tired or not feeling well, they may take this into consideration. Are you upset about this or is your child upset? [...]
