1.5 Minute Penalties in MWAHA

MWAHA Reps and Association Presidents

A change in Rule 402 allows Affiliates or governing bodies to use a 1.5 minute minor penalty for games in which the periods are 15 minutes or less.

The MWAHA Executive Board has approved use of this rule as follows;

Motion 1; The MWAHA will allow leagues sanctioned by the MWAHA to designate that 1.5 minute penalties will be used in games that have periods of 15 minutes or less.

Motion 2; The MWAHA will allow the home team within any MWAHA area association to designate that 1.5 minute penalties can be used in games that have periods of 15 minutes or less. The sanctioned MWAHA Leagues ruling takes priority.

Note; the three Leagues sanctioned within the MWAHA include the Mid-West League, Mid-West High School League and the Nebraska House League.
