The Open League plays two 20 game seasons a year usually starting in late spring and early winter. All new players to the league must attend a league sponsored on ice evaluation before being allowed to play so we can place you in the proper division to be drafted. Again, everyone new to our league MUST attend an evaluation to determine your skill level before we can place you on a team. We do not allow subs or part time players. If you are new to the league and want to play after the start of a particular season or cannot attend the evals, please send your info to: newplayers@atlantahockey.org to be placed on the waiting/contact list. Depending upon availibilty and need, we sometimes have a mid-season eval to fill open roster spots. Sometimes we have one and sometimes we do not. It depends on the availibility of open roster spots.
Evaluations are not try-outs. The evals are simply our way of judging your talent level so we can place you into the proper division to be drafted. They will consist of an hour of skating and puck handling drills with the last :45 minutes or so being a full scrimmage. Full gear is required. We try to place everyone who signs up.
If you missed the beginning of the season and would like to join as soon as possible and would like to be placed on the waiting/contact list please send an email to newplayers@atlantahockey.org
Please include in the email a detailed description of your hockey background. (how long you have played, what levels, where, age, etc. It will help us expedite getting you into the league if openings pop up.
Contact newplayers@atlantahockey.org with any questions.
