ACC Hockey League

The ACC Hockey League will hold the annual kickoff meeting on September 11, 2010 at UVA’s Newcomb Hall at 12:30PM.

Charlottesville Ice Park is under new management. The University of Virginia has reached an agreement with the rink for all home games for the upcoming season to be held at the facility.

The 2011 ACC Hockey League Championship Tournament will be hosted by the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill on February 18-20, 2011. UNC is actively working on finalizing details of the tournament. We will post more information on the tournament as details become available.

The ACCHL is pleased to welcome George Washington University and the University of Maryland to the league, starting with the 2010-11 season. The addition of these programs will add to the competitve play in the league and is part of the expansion plan led by ACCHL Commissioner Don Martin. Plans are to continue expanding from to the current seven team league to twelve teams in the near future.

                          

Virginia Tech notified the ACCHL of their decision to leave the ACCHL, effective for the 2010-11 season.

The Virginia Tech Hockey Program has been a valued member of the ACCHL and we wish them every success as their program undergoes this transition.

As part of its expansion plan, Don Martin (ACCHL Commissioner) and the existing member programs,welcome the University of Maryland men’s ice hockey program to the ACCHL,  beginning in the 2010-2011 upcoming season. With the addition of the George Washington University, earlier this year, the League is now at 8 teams. Plans are to expand to 12 teams in the very near future.
