How
much playing time will my child get?
Everyone
at KYHA plays in every game. Our Bylaws
state, “...KYHA shall foster
good, clean, sportsmanlike conduct
and fair play in individual, as well
as team competition, and should endeavor
to provide a fair share of ice time
for all players in the program.”
Youth hockey games have three periods
of 12 minutes each. At the Mini-Mite
level, the three lines alternate,
each playing two-minute shifts. Older
skaters "change on the fly"
just like the pros. House teams will
have equal ice time for all team members,
as is reasonably possible. League
team objectives are to skate all players
equally. Exceptions are the last 5
minutes of a game when the score is
within 3 goals, or when a coach may
use a set power play and/or penalty
killing unit.
