Note from Don Arias MIHOA Youth VP
Per Missouri Hockey Youth Division please make sure that we are playing 12-12-13 minute periods for all Mo Hockey Youth Peewee and Bantam exhibition and league games. Teams do not get to huddle prior to the start of the first period. After warm ups the starting five players must immediately take their place for start of the game. Teams do not get to huddle after the first period; we have an immediate face off to start the second period after the conclusion of the first period. This is the same process we followed last year. This would not apply for tournaments such as big bear and ultimate. This only applies to Mo hockey exhibition games, friendlies, and league games. Please discuss this with the coaches before the game or during warmups to ensure they are all on same page.
