MCYHL and Denville PAL follow the USA Hockey rules for equipment. As we begin our season, please read the following EQUIPMENT UPDATE:
- HELMETS: Check the expiration date on the round HECC sticker on the back, make sure yours is still valid. Also, wear a face cage or full visor.
- NECK GUARD: USA Hockey are not yet mandating their use, however our counterparts in Canada are. Denville PAL Hockey STRONGLY RECOMMENDS use of a neck guard.
- MOUTHPIECE: A non-clear mouthpiece is required at PeeWee and above; however Denville PAL encourages all players, at all ages to wear one. Referees will enforce mouthpieces being worn properly (not hanging out of the mouth) at all levels.
- PRACTICES: Full protective gear is required at practices. Any jersey is acceptable.
Your coaches should be able to answer any questions you may have.
