The NCHL program consists of clinics, a non-check league schedule, team practices, exhibition games, and culminates with the NCHL Tournament. All games and practices will be held at Cantiague Park (Hicksville-indoors), Grant Park (Hewlett-outdoors), Christopher Morley Park (Roslyn-outdoors), and Northwell Health Center at Eisenhower Park (East Meadow-indoors).
Weeknight games for 10U, 12U & 14U players will be scheduled Monday through Thursday at either Grant Park or Christopher Morley Park, and early morning games will be held on the weekends at Northwell Health Ice Center at Eisenhower Park and Cantiague Park. Each team will be scheduled for two to four ice slots per week.
For our 6U/8U players, our Mite Initiation Program is held Sunday mornings at Cantiague Park from 11:00 a.m.-Noon, with games run by coaches on Saturday mornings at Christopher Morley Park (weather pending, beginning approximately December 2025).
Players of all skill levels, from beginner to experienced, are welcomed to join the NCHL. Our coaches will evaluate players in late September, and select teams based on their collaborative evaluations. The primary goal for the NCHL is to create a fun hockey development environment for all, and foster the growth of your child’s skill set and the great sport of hockey.
Cost for our 6U/8U Mite Initiation Program is $420 per player, and $565 per player for the 10U, 12U & 14U age groups (in addition to your registration with USA Hockey for the 2025-2026 season).
