Fall/Winter 2024-25 Season

The season is winding down quickly! There are only 4 regular season games left and then it's on to playoffs. A quick reminder that playoffs are single elimination and are scheduled as follows:

• April 13th round 1 all divisions
• April 27th semifinals for 6 team divisions, and championship games for all divisions.

Summer 2025

We are working on getting everything ready for Summer SOL registration, but here is what we do know:

• Registration will start April 27th after the current season officially ends
• This summer will be very similar to last summer (2024)
• 3 divisions (Upper, Middle, and Lower)
• 4 teams per division
• FULL DRAFT (scheduled for May 18th)
• 10 Games - no playoffs
• The schedule currently looks like this but is subject to change:

A quick shoutout and BIG thank you to the C2 Division Bandits team!!! with only 16 team penalty minutes they are currently the least penalized team in the entirety of SOL!! Thank you guys for adhering to the "DBAD" rule! Your Disciplinary Committee and I appreciate it!

See you at the rink!

A couple of reminders for everyone....

• SOL starts back up tomorrow, Sunday January 5th!
• The rink has requested that everyone be reminded that there is no alcohol permitted in the parking lot or in the locker rooms. If you have an adult beverage prior to your game please dispose of the container outside of the locker room.
• The rink has started doing a few heavier cuts throughout the day, please do not get on the ice until until the scheduled time.... if you have a 4:00pm game and the zam is off at 3:55, do not get on the ice until 4:00. Scorekeepers will not start the warmup clock until your scheduled time.

Most of us have been off the ice since December 15th, please take some time to stretch before your game.... some great hockey stretches here:

Do good things, make wise choices.

A few reminders for everyone...

We have had both scorekeepers and refs request that all players on the ice have a unique and visible number on the back of their jersey!! It makes their lives a whole lot easier when recording stats, and also assures that goals, assists and penalties are being assigned to the correct player. It is also a USA Hockey rule and is technically a bench minor to not comply with the uniform code.

If you did not take the time to read through the NAHA SOL Code of Conduct that you agreed to at registration, please make a point of doing so ASAP....you're here now, so this might be a good time...click on RESOURCES in the upper right corner of this page, and then on NAHA SOL Code of Conduct.

As we head into the holiday season keep an eye on the schedule. We will be playing the Sunday after Thanksgiving (December 1st) and our last game of 2024 will be Sunday December 15th. The league starts back up after the New Year on January 5th so enjoy the break!

Respectfully,

Stephanie Jeffrey

SOL Director

Hello Everyone!

Rosters and schedules are up in GameSheet at this link: SOL 2024-25 Season Schedule

A couple of reminders regarding subs:

• Skater Subs – MUST BE REGISTERED FOR THE CURRENT SEASON OF SOL – NO EXCEPTIONS! Skater subs must also come from the Division subbing in or a lower Division and are subject to the approval of the opposing Captain. SOL does not register skaters as sub only.
• Goalie Subs – Preferably from same division or a lower division, also subject to the approval of the opposing Captain. SOL maintains a goalie sub list, if anyone is interested in being a sub-goalie and not a rostered goalie they can contact nahasoldirector@gmail.com for instructions on how to do this.

If you are new to SOL or need a refresher on Penalty Rules, including SOL supplemental rules, click on the "Resources" tab in the menu at the top. Additionally, we will be tracking suspensions on the website again this season. One final reminder, please please please be respectful to the Officials!

Let's have a great season!

Respectfully,

Stephanie Jeffrey

SOL Director

NAHA Board of Directors

Thank you to everyone for participating in SOL this summer! We tried a few different things this year and had some great feedback on both full draft and three divisions. It sounds like a few of you are choosing to move up a division this fall based on your experience this summer, this is awesome!

This year we will be again taking part in the end of summer Cross League Challenge games that will be played on Sunday September 15th.

Congratulations to the Upper Division Northern Lites who will play the HAHL Goal Diggers on September 15th at 5:15pm

Congratulations to the Middle Division Flamingos who will play the HAHL Steel Bandits on September 15th at 4:00pm
