As tryouts have now begun, we have had a lot of questions from parents regarding the recent change by NEHL to ensure age appropriate competition. 

"Will my child be playing against kids of the same birth year?"

 In the past, some NEHL teams were allowed to play in a division with teams that were a year older.  However, for the 2009-10 season, the NEHL has now realigned the divisions so that all teams are age appropriate.  There will no longer be younger teams playing up.  This will ensure that all divisions will be age appropriate competition this coming season.
