Assistant JV Coaches:
* Your year in school does not determine which team you are on; skaters are placed on teams by the coaches and based on ability. There may be some Freshmen on Varsity and/or Seniors on JV. Ice time is determined by the coaches.
* The Hockey Agreement and first payment must be received before the first practice along with all other athletic forms required by your school.
Fees are approx. $1500-$1600, the final number depends on the number of skaters and our expenses (ice time, tournament fees, etc.). Individuals will be billed through their respective schools.
Additional required costs paid through the Blue Line Club:
More information will be discussed at the Pre-season Winter Sports meeting in early October.
* The team will provide your home and away jerseys and game socks, you are responsible for the following:
* Muskego High School is the lead school and handles the team administration duties but the athletic directors from each school are responsible for their own skaters. Skaters must adhere to the grade requirements and athletic code for their school and disciplinary actions are handled by their athletic director. Skaters must complete all athletic forms as well as their physical exam, as determined by their school (usually Freshman and Junior year).
*Buses for the skaters are provided for many of the away games.
*The last regular season game is in early February followed by the start of the playoffs. The State tournament is usually the first full weekend of March, in Madison.
*During the season our team information/schedule/stats can be found at http://www.wisconsinprephockey.net/ We are in the Classic 8 Conference.
* Like all hockey teams, we will need plenty of volunteers during the season. Positions include completing the scoresheet, managing the timeclock, overseeing the penalty box, collecting game tickets, announcing at games, Senior night, etc.
*Before and after Hockey season teams/leagues are separate from high school hockey and they are for skaters who want a longer season. These teams/leagues have separate tryouts and fees and are strictly optional. You do not have to register with USA Hockey to play with the Ice Force, but you will have to register with USA Hockey to play on one of the before and after season teams.
