Senior Open League (SOL)

The Senior Open League (SOL) is an adult hockey league that was created to make hockey accessible to players of all skill levels. For the Fall/Winter season the league is made up of 5 Divisions each containing 4-6 teams of similar ability, and is typically 22 games long. For the Summer season we offer a 12 week season with 3 Divisions made up of 4 teams each. All players must be 18 prior to the start of the season.

Are payment plans available?

YES! if paying with a credit/debit card your season registration fees may be paid in 3 payments.

What happens if I miss a payment?

If you miss a payment for whatever reason you will be sent an email and will be required to bring your account current. If you fail to do so you will be placed on administrative suspension and will not be allowed to play and your captain may not sub for you.

Can I play with my friends?

While we try to accommodate requests skill parity amongst teams is a priority to keep teams competitive and games enjoyable for everyone on the ice..... so the answer is maybe...but we promise you will make new friends.

Where can I find the rules and regulations?

The most common penalty rules, including the SOL Supplemental Disciplinary Rules can be found under the Resources tab of this website. The full USAH Rules and Regulations can be found here

What do I do if I am injured during a SOL game?

1. If the injury needs to be tended to immediately this is your priority. The teams Captain should contact the SOL Director.
2. If time allows, notify the front office at the rink and request an incident report. The teams Captain will still need to contact the SOL Director.
3. You do have supplementary coverage as part of your USAH membership, the paperwork will need to be signed by the SOL Director prior to submission to USAH.

What are the sub rules and can I register as a sub?

If you are a skater the answer is no, we do not do "skater subs".

If you are a goalie the answer is yes! Due to their being only 26 registered goalies and either 4 or 6 per Division, the Director maintains a goalie sub list. In order to be on this list you must either be registered and rostered, or registered as directly as a goalie sub, contact nahasoldirector@gmail.com if you are interested in being added to this list, there is a $10 fee and current USAH registration is required.

All subs, both skater and goalie must come from within the League and preferably from within the same Division. A skater may sub up to a higher Division, but may not sub down and is subject to approval of the opposing Captain. Goalie subs must come from within SOL and be listed on the Goalie Sub List! If a Captain is unable to locate a goalie sub they are to contact the Division Coordinator who will reach out the members of the Goalie Sub List. If the GSL has been exhausted, contact the league Director.
