An essential update by USA Hockey and District 6 for the 2023- 2024 Mite Season.

Mite/8U 3 & 4 levels:

The following guidelines must be adhered to:

• Cross-ice games are mandatory for all games scheduled before January 15th.
• Scrimmage is permissible only with teams located within District 6. Games against teams outside of the district require approval from District 6 and can only be scheduled with neighboring districts - 1, 3, 8, and 9.
• After January 15th, eight full ice games are permitted.
• Each team is allowed to participate in up to two jamborees. These do not count towards the eight games total.
• It's essential to note that games and jamborees must occur within District 6. Approval from District 6 is mandatory for games or scrimmages outside of the district, which will only be approved with neighboring districts - 1, 3, 8, and 9.

Scrimmages and Games for 6U and Under:

• All games are played cross-ice for Mite 1, and 2 levels.
• It is essential to note that all games are played with a District 6 team, except when District 6 approves it with a neighboring district approval, such as 1, 3, 8, or 9.

Thanks to a generous donation, NPHA has hockey equipment sets available to use during the hockey season. Equipment is available in a variety of sizes, and will work for both girls and boys from ages 4-9 or Mite 1/8U-Mite 4/8U. This gear is available to any registered NPHA Mite player. It is a great way for NEW players to try hockey without a large initial investment. 

Each NPHA Gear Set includes a helmet, shoulder pads, elbow pads, gloves, breezers, stick, gear bag and shin pads. Some skates are also available.

**You will need to provide your own mouth guard and pelvic guard.
