Dear Affiliate Presidents, District and Associate Registrars,

During its April 12 meeting, the USA Hockey Executive Committee approved an increase to the invitational tournament sanction fees set forth in the USA Hockey Rules & Regulations at Section VIII, paragraph E.(6). Effective immediately, the USA Hockey sanctioning fee for all invitational tournaments, whether restricted to USA Hockey teams or including teams from other IIHF federations, shall be $250 per tournament. Please notify any tournament operators of any pending or future tournament sanction applications of this increase in the fee.

If you have any questions, please contact Kevin Erlenbach at kevine@usahockey.org or Kim Folsom at kimf@usahockey.org. 

Thank you,

Donna Guariglia
