My son is playing Bantam B this season as a first year Bantam. That's been his MO...first year B, second year A. Starting in Midgets, there is no more B level however. How does that work for players that can't make an A team in their first year at that level? Do they just play school hockey ..read more

Last year there were 103 bantam/13AA teams in the AHF. This year I’m counting 49 bantam teams and 17 13AA. These numbers are from the teams on the parity schedule that was just released. The number of teams is way down from last year. What gives? Did clubs really leave the AHF? Did players go back ..read more

My kid used to play goalie several years ago. what i have seen (and heard) lately, is that rinks everywhere need goalies. I see so many teams, even at lower levels with two goalies. if goalies are so hard to find, why arent parents doing more to jump around to find a team where they can have their own ..read more

Seems like 14u and 12u hockey (even at A and B levels) is approaching $5,000 at some NJ Black Bear rinks. Is this really what parents want to pay for those levels? Nothing against those levels, but do you really need to have 50+ practices and travel tournaments? Whatever happened to semi competitive ..read more
