RECREATIONAL HOCKEY (CRHL)
OBJECTIVE OF THE CRHL/RECREATIONAL PROGRAM
The CRHL/Rec league consist of many of the same clubs as the RMHF/Travel and games are played at locations across the Front Range. This league is designed to provide a recreational level of play for ages Squirt through Midget. The level of play is typically less competitive than the RMHF/Travel teams but still provides a great environment for participating and learning the game.
The CRHL/Rec program is less of a commitment in terms of time and cost than RMHF/Travel. Teams play 1 or 2 games per weekend and offers 1 - 2 practices per week on average. Additionally, goalies are able to attend special goalie training practices weekly. The season usually runs from team selection in late Sept to playoffs at the end of February. This is a great place for a new player aged squirt to midget to start with NCYH. CRHL/Rec teams are selected to try and balance the strength of the teams within an age division.
