A season will consist of 10 games for all teams. The top 4 teams in a division will make the playoffs. Regular season games will be 3 - 15 minute running time periods. There will be a 5-minute warm-up and two 1 minute intermissions. Teams must have a minimum of 4 skaters and a goalie dressed and ready to play by the end of the 5-minute warm-up or the game will be a forfeit. There will be stop time in the last 2 minutes of the 3rd period if the score is with-in 2 goals or less. If the score of the game is tied at the expiration of regulation time, there will be a 5 minute sudden death over time period. The over time period will be running time except for the last two minutes. The last to minutes will be stop time. If the game is still tied at the conclusion of the overtime period, the game will result in a tie for regular season games. Each team will receive one point for the standings.

team standings

A team will receive 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie and 0 points for a loss. A team's total points will determine where they place in the division standings and for playoffs.

tie breakers for team standings

  • 2nd -The most wins
  • 3rd - Head to head (who won when the teams played each other)
  • 4th - Least goals against
  • 5th - Most goals for

individual standings

The player with the most total points, goals and assists, will win a free season for the following season. If the free season is not used the following season then the player loses his or her free season. The free season cannot be "saved" for later use. The free season cannot be transferred to another player. The free season can be used towards the winning players team fee of the team that the player is playing on the following season.

tie breakers for individual standings

  • 1st - The most total points ( goals and assists)
  • 2nd -The most goals
  • 3rd - Shootout - There will be a one round shootout. To be fair, both players will shoot on the same goalie from a neutral team selected by the management. Each player will have three shots within the round to determine a winner. Who ever gets more goals within the three shots will be determined the winner. If there is no winner at the end of the three shots then each player will take turns shooting one shot each until one player is declared a winner.

playoffs

The playoffs will be played the week following the last game on the same night as all of that division's regular season games. Game 1 of the semi finals will be first place will play fourth place and game 2 will be second place will play third place. This will be followed by the championship game being the winner of game 1 will play the winner of game 2. For the playoffs no games will end in a tie. All games will be played until a winner is declared. If the score of a game is tied at the end of the regulation game time then a there will be a 5-minute sudden death over time period. The first team to score a goal is the winner. If there is no winner after the 5-minute overtime then there will be a best of three shoot out. If there is still no winner after the 3 player shoot out then each team will take turns supplying one shooter per team to shoot until one team is declared a winner. During the shoot out no player can shoot a second time until all players on the bench have had turn in the shoot out. In the championship game , if there is a tied score at the end of regulation, there will be no shoot out. The game will go directly to a 15 minute, running time, sudden death period. The last two minutes will be stop time. If there is still no winner after the first overtime period this process will be repeated until a winner is declared. If a team has not used their time out during the first three periods of the game they may use it during the over time period.

divisions

Players will not be allowed to play for more than one team in a division. Players may be permitted to play in 2 divisions as long as they are only one division apart and playing a level up from the division that they are currently playing in (ie. A intermediate player may play advanced or a beginner player may play intermediate.) If the league feels that a player is to advanced for a lower level team then the lower level team may be bumped up to a higher division after adding such a player or the individual advanced player(s) can choose to play for a team in a higher division.

team rosters

A team roster shall be composed of a maximum of 12 total players which will include at least one goalie and up to 11 skaters. After 2 games are completed, final rosters will be closed. No additional players will be allowed to be added or permitted to play for that team other than players on the roster. For any player to play in the playoffs he/she must be on the team roster sheet and must have played in a minimum of three games during that season. If a player plays in a playoff game and has not met his three game requirements the game will result in a forfeit for the team that player is playing for. All players, including substitute players, and coaches on a team roster must be registered with AAU Hockey In-line. Cost for the year is $14.00.

substitute players

A team may be allowed to use a substitute player if that player is on the final roster handed in to management, presents a current AAU Hockey Inline number to the office at the time of the game and all player/team fees are paid in full for the team that they are playing on. Only one substitute player may be listed per team roster. A substitue player must report to the office every time he/she plays in a game to be recorded as playing in a game. A substitue player must play in a minimum of three games to be eligable to play in the playoffs. If a substitute player plays in a playoff game and has not met his three game requirements the game will result in a forfeit for the team that player is playing for. No more than one substitute players will be allowed in any one game for any team. Only one substitute player will be allowed on a team bench through out the playoffs. It must be the same substitute player for the duration of the playoff series. The substitute player must have a matching jersey with a permanent number on the back for any game he or she wishes to participate in.

If a team is does not have enough players to play a game and is requesting to use a non rostered substitute player then 1) the player's skill level must be approved by management and 2) the opposing team must approve of the substitution. If the opposing team does not approve of the substitue player and the requesting team cannot dress enough players to start a game then the game will be forfeited. A team may not request a non rostered player if they have enough players to start a game.

illegal roster challenge

If a team is challenged for having a non-roster player actively playing in a game and found guilty of the charge, the game will be stopped and they will immediately lose the game by forfeit.

If a team challenges another team for having a non roster player in the game but the player is on the team roster and rightfully in the game then the team making the challenge will be charged with a two minute delay of game penalty to be served by a player on the floor at the time of the challenge. This challenge must be made by the end of the second period.

team jerseys

All teams will be required to wear matching jerseys with a minimum 10" number displayed on the back. Jersey's must cover all pads. It is recommended that each team have a white and a dark jersey with the same number on it (for stat purposes) in case another team has the same color dark jersey. Whichever team is the home team on the schedule will have the choice to wear light or dark.

player stats

Player stats will be posted on the web site at the "Leagues" link. Teams are responsible for submitting the correct player to the number that will be used for stat purposes. It is important to have the correct number on the back of both the white and dark jerseys all season long to make sure a player gets credit for their goals or assists in the stats. Once score sheets are handed into the office all stats are final. In each division the player with the most total points will win a free season of hockey. This must be used towards the next season after he or she wins. Please see "Individual Standings" above for further details.

If the same player is ejected three times in a season, including playoffs, for this reason that player may receive an additional one game suspension.

Any one player that receives a major penalty in the last two minutes of a game he/she may receive a minimum of a one game suspension. If the same player is suspended a second time in a season for the same reason then the player will receive up to an additional three games suspension and possible fines.
