LCMHL Affiliation – Overview

The LCMHL has received HEO approval to use the Club System for affiliation.

Overview

The Club System for affiliation is a simple solution well suited for recreational hockey. It removes much of the overhead and formality of the 19‑Player System — it does not require exclusivity to a target team, nor does it require an affiliate to be rostered with the team.

The following sections provide an overview of the Club System.

Affiliation Limits

  • A skater may affiliate up to a total of 15 meaningful games.
    • This limit applies to LCMHL regular season and playoff games.
    • It does not apply to exhibition games or tournaments.
    • The 15 games may be across multiple affiliating teams.
  • There is no limit on goalie affiliations.

Affiliation Eligibility

  • Affiliation must follow the D4 affiliation chart.
  • Affiliated players must belong to the same minor hockey association as the affiliating team.

Rostering and Exclusivity

  • The affiliating player does not need to be rostered on the team affiliating them.
    • This applies to LCMHL games only. Players must be rostered for exhibition games and tournaments.
  • There is no exclusivity in the Club System.
    • A player may affiliate with one team on Saturday and another team on Sunday.

TTM

  • TTM has been configured for the Club System for LCMHL.
