NGHL FUTURES CHAMPIONSHIP
February 6-8, 2026
While Nationals don’t exist at 10U & 12U, our Futures Championship is a great platform to offer an end-of-season event - something for the younger teams to “play for” during their season and look forward to.
We're thrilled to celebrate our youngest NGHL community with the NGHL Futures Championships (10U/12U) this year in Connecticut. This event has a 5-game guarantee in a Round Robin format with Finals. All NGHL events are USAH-sanctioned.
All teams must be prepared to play from 8:00 am on Friday through to 4:00 pm on Sunday. Scheduling requests should be submitted a minimum of 1 month in advance. Email info@nghlhockey.com.
Please note that in the age of COVID, there may be the circumstance that the schedule will change due to teams dropping out with positive tests. Please DO NOT make any plans that can not be refunded.
