  • The league requires that all players register with USA hockey ($30).

  • Although most of our away games are close enough to home, we may stay at a hotel a couple nights a season. Budget about $30/night.

  • Use of jerseys is free. Purchase of matching socks (~$12) is encouraged. Contact Jes to order team hockey socks--or any other team apparel. Team jackets, hoodies, ets. are available.

Why does it cost so much?
Basically, because ice time is expensive. Depending on the rink, ice costs $160-250/hr. So each practice sets us back $160. Games are even more expensive. The league asks that we reserve 1.5hr of ice time and hire a referee and a linesman ($75), for a total of $315. Considering the expenses, the league actually requires that we charge a miminum of $450 per full time player.
Why it is worth it
Because winter can last a very long time... There are other adult hockey leagues in the neighborhood, like Fort Collins Adult Hockey Association or NoCo's Adult Hockey League, but unlike them we have regular practices and excellent coaches. For the same price, our total number of hours on ice equals or exceeds theirs. We also offer more flexibility with part-time and practice-only membership options. Plus, our jerseys are prettier.
