2011 Girls Spring League 3 v 3

2011 10U, 12U, and 14U Girls 3 v 3 Spring League

The Original Spring League 2011

This page will be updated in December for the 2011 Spring League.

Thank you,


In an effort to provide girls with a fun pond hockey type environment with minimum coaching and maximum touches on the puck during  half ice 45 minute games we are creating the NSP Girls 3 v 3 Spring League.

In response to survey results from last season, we are also adding a 4v4 league for 10U players, as well as lengthening the games to 45 minutes

Games will be played on a half sheet of ice with teams typically consisting of 5 players for the 12U and 14U, 10U teams may want to cary more players since they will play 4 on 4. These players can change up at anytime during the game. The goalie will be shared with all defensive players having to tag up over the blue line when they gain possession of the puck or the goalie freezes it.

To minimize costs, jerseys won't be supplied. Players should bring one dark and one light/white colored jersey to each game. Coaches / Adult team sponsors will officiate the games on the ice which pretty much consists of standing by the center red line to make sure the very basic rules are followed and blowing the whistle if they are not. The coach / adult team sponsors should minimize coaching and remain team neutral. If a coach / adult team sponsor is not available, NSP will supply an official. This needs be arranged prior to the ice time.

The League starts approximately March 21st  and will end approximately May 9th.  Dates will vary by team.

Goalies: We are planning on carrying a maximum of 4 goalies at each level and have them play 1 full session at a time. This will be on a first to register basis. If two goalies wish to split we will accomdate.

If you have questions, please send to: 3v3@nsphockey.org  or contact Erick Larson at 651-330-4101.

Questions and Answers:

Q: If submitting a team, do I have to have a goalie?

A: No. There will be a maximum of 4 goalies that should sign up individually and will be scheduled for 1 hour/2 game slots. Goalies can share contact information to use if they have conflicts and need to swap times.

A: Yes

Q: Can I sign my daughter up if she doesn't have a team or coach/sponsor?

A: Yes. We will work to find a team that is short of 5 players

Q: Can I have a team with less or more players than the recommended 5 player roster?

A: Yes, as long as the $375 team fee is covered, all is good.

 

Q: If a team is short players, can players from another team sub in for them?

A: Yes, as long as they are registered girls and not playing down (14U can't play 12U) they can play on other teams.
