Standard of Play
Dear Friends,
It's an exciting time of the year as another hockey season is upon us.
You may be aware that USA Hockey is implementing a new Standard of Play and Rules Enforcement throughout the country in 2006-07.
While this new Standard of Play does not involve any rule changes, it does change the way our current rules will be called by referees in relation to hooking, holding, tripping and interference.
I strongly encourage you to visit our website usahockey.com and take the time to gather everyone in your family to watch the video presentation we've developed that explains what is and is not acceptable under the new Standard of Play. It's a terrific piece that will help everyone understand what to expect.
With the new standards, players will be rewarded offensively and defensively for their use of speed, skill, and strength.
Please help us in carrying the positive message forward. Together we will make our great game even better.
Best Wishes,
Ron DeGregorio, President USA Hockey
