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

*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)
