- Comparing to the 10U, both 12U and 14U only have two teams on the ice while practicing and we book 1.25 hours of ice for their games versus 10U only booking 1 hour of ice for games. Officials for those games also cost more than 10U officials due to age and game duration.
- Comparing to 16/18u, 12U and 14U have a lot more practice time built into the cost of their programs.
They will always be the weekend before Labor Day.

Wins = 2 pts, Ties = 1 pt, Losses = 0 pts. At the end of the season, teams at a given level will have a total amount of points ranking them all from first, second, and so on. If there are teams that are tied up, then we would go to the following tie breakers in this order. First is points, second is head to head, third most wins in league play, forth is goal differential. In certain situations, when uneven amounts of games have been played, we will use a point differential to determine ranking.
