League Format:
NMHockey plans to have (4) E division teams, (6) D division teams, (6) C division teams and (4) B division teams for the '10 Spring season. Note: The numbers of teams in each division can change depending on player registration.

E = Beginner
D = low - mid level Intermediate
C = high level Intermediate - low/mid level Competitive
B = high level Competitive - better
A = former professional or college players
**The NMHockey league does not currently have enough players to support having an A level division at this time.

Each team consists of 10 skaters and a goalie. (Substitutions are provided for players unable to make a game.)
Team rosters are randomly drawn at the beginning of each season by that season's captains. Teams are then announced at our team unveiling party.
Each game has 2 USA Hockey sanctioned referees plus scorekeepers/announcer.
See below for game days and times.

Game Days and Times:
E Division Sundays - 6:45PM & 8:15PM
B Division Mondays* - 7:00PM & 8:30PM & 10:00PM
D Division Mondays* - 7:00PM & 8:30PM & 10:00PM
C Division Wednesdays - 7:00PM, 8:30PM & 10:00PM
*We have (2) 7PM, (2) 8:30PM, and (1) 10PM time slots on Mondays. The B and D divisions will share the time slots so all teams receive approximately the same number of games at each time slot.

All games are played at the Outpost Ice Arena on Tramway Blvd. (See Map)

Season Format:
