These modifications, in addition to all protocols currently in place, are required for all Ice Hockey in the state of Massachusetts including all Youth, Adult, Private, High School, etc., Programs and Groups.
These modifications may not be the way we want to return to hockey, but at least now we can get back to playing games. Everyone must become informed and follow all the guidelines set forth by the state.
Thank you for your understanding as we get back on the ice!
