Northern Line Construction vowed to match donations to our organization in the beginning, assisting us in being able to provide ice time and skilled coaches to teach our local youth the game of hockey!
We will be participating at the Tier 4 level, which we believe our teams will be good competition for other local programs. Teams will practice x2 a week (exception of school vacations/holidays) and scrimmage other teams almost every weekend. We also hope to host a tournament at home this year, though this is not yet confirmed.

USA Hockey has spent many years researching the development of both genders and ages of players and has built a very specific model we MUST follow regarding age groupings of players. Those groups are 6U, 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U, 16U and 18U. Players are unable to move up to other age groupings. These decisions will be made by coaching staff only and board members only.
8U is a stepping stone to the more competitive hockey seasons of 10U and up. Below are some key components to 8U that are a little different than the other age groups.
HERE is a link to the ADM model USA Hockey utilizes for 8U. This link is very informative and easy to read.
Another good resource is the Maine Amateur Hockey Association's 8U policy which you can find HERE
The Registration "Tier 4 Hockey Season" is not currently available.
