There are a lot of questions regarding the Western 2 Line (W2L) that has been emailed out.
Stephenville Minor Hockey Association (SMHA) is looking for expressions of interest for joining
this program. Players interested will be responsible for extra costs related to travel/games/tournaments.
Players will be placed on teams in their current age division. Teams will be made of 11+2 (Players+Goalies)
to play teams in other associations. (Deer Lake, Corner Brook, Stephenville...). Teams will be divided evenly
within their own association. (IE. If we have enough players for 2 teams in a division they will be divided into
2 equal strength teams).
There will be no player skill selection process for this! All players wanting to play will be eligible to play.
We have been asked by HNL that Games/Tournaments be on Saturdays to avoid conflicts with the
Western AA Program that play on Sundays.
Teams will play other associations and results will be submitted to HNL Western to rank teams based on game
results. This will be done to rank teams to possibly play in Easter play down tournaments.
Schedule, Costs, and other financial expectations cannot be determined at this time as number of teams
and locations have not been determined. If we don't have enough interest SMHA will not participate.
With COVID-19 protocols in place we have restrictions from HNL on tournaments. (UPDATED Jan 11) please see:

We have received a letter from the Stephenville Dome to notify us that some kids in the older divisions have been undressing down to their undergarments in the hallway where the chairs are placed. This will not be tolerated as it is a public facility. The kids are still required to come and go fully dressed as per our Return to Hockey Plan. Please discuss with them to make sure they know this is not appropriate.
