Since 1998, Russell Hockey and Game of the Week have strived to provide a ‘Safe, Fun & Relaxed Atmosphere’ in every one of our leagues. Our non-competitive league follows these sets of rules in every location to maintain our unique game of hockey.
• Continuous play / 50 minute games
• No body contact
• No fighting (Any fighting will result in lifetime ban from Russell Hockey)
• Offside – Offensive team will give possession of the puck to the defensive team and clear the offensive zone
• Face-offs – Face-offs will only occur at start of the game.
• Goals – Following a goal, the offensive team will clear the zone and allow the defensive team have possession of the puck
• Icing – No icing calls or two line pass calls
• Penalties – Any penalty will result in a penalty shot
• Severe Penalties – Our refs have the right to remove any player from the ice for an intentional infraction. This may lead to further suspension of expulsion from the league without reimbursement.
