USA Hockey Tier 1 State & District Tournament Tracker
Updated March 20 at 12:15 p.m. EDT
It’s that time again!
USA Hockey Youth and Girls National Championship berths have been handed out again as state and district tournaments concluded around the United States.
In states like Minnesota and Massachusetts, which have high USA Hockey membership numbers and where high-school hockey is extremely popular, Nationals bids for the older age groups are determined in the fall before the prep and high-school seasons commence. Other states that have high USA Hockey enrollment such as New York and Michigan also are afforded the opportunity to send their Tier 1 state champions to Nationals, but their tournaments are held in February and March.
The rest of the country is divided into districts, with those districts receiving National Championship bids for their Youth and Girls champions at various age levels. All of the Tier 1 state and district tournaments were held in recent weeks, dating back to late February.
USA Hockey National Championships are held for Tier 1 and Tier 2 teams at various locations around the country in April.
CLICK HERE for a listing of USA Hockey Nationals dates and locations.
In addition, USA Hockey High School National Championships are underway in West Chester, Pa., and can be viewed at USAHockeyTV.com. High School tournaments, being held at Ice Line Arena, feature four divisions -- Division I, Division II, Prep and Girls.
