The schedule will be released very soon. We are in the process of finalizing every matchup. Posted.

With The Crossbar being closed the Committee worked on a couple of different scenarios and we decided on the one that we felt was best…

Fort McMurray 50/50 Draw

What an incredible night! I’ve experienced a lot of exciting moments in my short hockey career, but what I witnessed last night by far surpasses all of that. This idea came to light on Thursday morning. Our expectation and goal was to raise $500 to send to Fort McMurray. We purchased 1000 tickets. By 8:15, we were making a dash to purchase another 600. I always knew this was a great league with a great group of people…last night changed my mind…this is a phenomenal league with a phenomenal group of people.

ARL Closing Weekend

So as you all know the Fall/Winter season is coming to a close this weekend. In our customary fashion we are hoping that we can get as many players and their individual entourages together to celebrate a fantastic season.

We realize that four teams are playing at Appleby Arena and that due to our huge numbers sixteen teams have to wait until Sunday to finish the season but we truly hope as many of you can come out as possible. Continue reading “ARL Closing Weekend” →
