MYH's Travel Hockey Program What is Travel Hockey?
For those new to hockey and to MYH, we offer two major Hockey programs: A Travel program and a House League Program. We also offer a Learn to Skate program. For additional information about the last two programs, please see the appropriate tabs at the top of the Home Page.
The MYH travel program consists of aged based boys and girls divisions. The Boy’s division is broken in to five age levels based on USA Hockey guidelines: Mite (ages 7-8), Squirt (9-10), Pee Wee (11-12), Bantam (13-14) and Midgets (15-18). The Girls division is broken into five age levels based on USA Hockey guidelines as well: U (under) 10, U12, U14, U16 and U19. Depending on the numbers of registrations, MYH tries to field teams in all levels.
Within each level – boys or girls, teams are selected based on skating and hockey skills: “A” teams having the highest level and “C” teams have lesser skills. Regardless of skill levels – whether your son or daughter is on an A, B or C team, MYH offers players a fun, safe and competitive playing environment.
As most of the players on the Midget and U19 teams are at the high school levels – and a majority of these players play for High School hockey, MYH offers a Half Season program. This program typically runs from late August and ends prior to Thanksgiving. They typically have about 13 games plus the one Skills/Power Skating and one Team Practice each week.
For all the other teams, MHY offers a full travel season that runs from mid-September to the end of March. These teams typically play about 30 games, and includes a weekly Skills/Power Skating and one team practice each week.
