Program Details

Our Bantam/High School House League is open to players of all skill levels—whether you’re just starting out, have some experience, or are a seasoned player – veryone is welcome. Our coaches and administrators are dedicated to creating balanced teams to ensure an enjoyable experience for all while also considering requests for friends to play together.

The primary goal of this league is simple: FUN. We aim to foster a love of the game in a supportive and friendly environment, helping players make lasting memories and embrace “hockey for life.” Whether you’re here to enjoy the game or make new friends, this league has something for everyone.

Teams play one game each week and conclude the season with a best-of-three series championship. Players are placed on teams within the first two weeks of the season and receive jerseys that must be returned at season end. Team assignments will be completed AFTER the first 4 practices/evaluations.

Registration Checklist

You will need to complete these tasks prior to (or during) the registration process:

Registration

Players will need a 2025-2026 USA Hockey number to register. This is done at an additional cost directly through USA Hockey. Please please make sure to register your player using their FULL legal name as it appears on their birth certificate. Legal names are required by the registrar and all players must provide a birth certificate if they have not submitted one in a prior season. If your family needs assistance covering the USA Hockey membership fee, you may apply for a USA Hockey Membership Relief Fund Grant.

Register online through our DASH. When registering, make sure to have your player’s name selected from the dropdown menu. Daysmart will only show programs your player is age-eligible for. You may either pay the registration fee in full or set up a payment plan.

See our Financial Policies for information on registration refunds.

Additional Information

Financial aid is available for families needing help with registration fees. To apply, complete a Financial Assistance Application and return it via email or mail before the registration deadline or program start date. Financial aid covers up to 2/3 of the registration fee but does not cover the volunteer obligation amount. Players should still register before the deadline and select the payment plan option. If awarded, the financial aid will be applied to the remaining balance.

We also offer the Colin Moffatt Snodgrass scholarship, which is awarded to a travel player and house player each season. See the scholarship page for complete details.

Both programs are funded through donations. If you would like to donate to the Financial Assistance Fund, you may do so when you register, or donate through our website.

Rental equipment appointments for the 2025-2026 season will be available starting in late August.

Rental equipment is available for $100 per player for the season. Equipment rental is staffed by volunteers and is available through appointment only.
