Let’s goooooo!!

🏒 GOOD LUCK, SCHL PLAYERS & COACHES! 🇺🇸

The South Coast Hockey League season is here! We want to wish all of our players, coaches, and teams the very best of luck as we get underway. Compete hard, have fun, and enjoy being back at the rink!

A few important reminders as we begin the season:

🚗 Parents & Families: Please give yourselves ample travel time when heading to the rinks. Arriving early helps teams stay on schedule and keeps the day running smoothly.

⏱️ Strict Ice Blocks: All SCHL games are played within strict ice-time blocks. Teams should be ready to take the ice and begin on time. Game overruns are not permitted. Games must be completed within the blocks assigned.

📱 Home Team Scoring: The team listed as HOME on the SCHL schedule is responsible for scoring the game in GameSheet, regardless of the venue during parity.

📲 Visiting Teams: Please bring an iPad to every game as well. Having a backup available can prevent delays if the home team experiences an iPad or GameSheet issue.

Thank you to our coaches, parents, volunteers, officials, scorekeepers, and rink staff who make the season possible. And finally, a special thank you to all of our SCHL member organizations. A tremendous amount of work happens behind the scenes during the offseason, and your preparation, communication, scheduling, and coordination have helped make the start of this season smooth. We appreciate everything you do for the league and, most importantly, for the players.

Good luck to everyone and have a great SCHL season! 🏒🥅

🧹Coaches and Team Managers - please see important house keeping info below!!

🏒 SCHL Coaches — Parity Starts This Week!

Before your team hits the ice, please take a few minutes to complete the SCHL Coaches Pre-Parity Checklist. If you do not have your team's invitation code please contact your organization's administration.

Make sure your GameSheet login is working, your roster and player numbers are accurate, and your iPad is updated and ready to go. Every team should bring an iPad to EVERY game — home or away. Remember the HOME TEAM regardless of venue is responsible to score the game.

⚠️ U18 Coaches: Please pay particular attention to your official roster. Players and coaches who have not completed the required USA Hockey/SafeSport requirements may not appear on the roster and should not participate until all requirements are complete.

Welcome back to our new and returning U14 and U18 groups! 🐻❤️

These athletes hold such a special place in our program. As the oldest players in our club, they are not only growing into incredible athletes themselves, but also becoming the role models and leaders our younger players look up to.

Some of these kids have been part of our program for nearly 15 years. We have had the incredible privilege of watching them grow from little players into confident, hardworking high school athletes — and seeing the people they have become along the way has been one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

They truly embody what it means to be a Bear: dedication, resilience, teamwork, heart, and a commitment to lifting up those around them. 🐻

We are so proud of how far they’ve come, grateful for all the memories along the way, and excited for all that is still ahead. We can’t wait to watch these young leaders continue to grow, inspire, and shine! ❤️
