The Junior League is a contact league comprised of four teams. Players in this league are between 15 – 17 years old.
Representative Hockey
There are four national representative leagues, U15, U18 ,U20 and Women’s (NZWIHL). This is serious ice hockey with teams travelling around the country at weekends playing one another.
Women’s Hockey
The Women’s Ice Hockey league is run in a similar format to the men’s league, with games being played in a round robin in addition to a finals weekend, thus greatly increasing the number of games played.
Adult Hockey League
The Adult Hockey League is the AIHA’s largest league and brings together a mixture of players and varying levels of skill. Our Adult Hockey League season runs from March to October.
NZIHL
The five NZIHL teams are predominantly made up of New Zealand players, but each team is able to import players from outside of New Zealand although only 5 may be dressed any one game.
