As of 8/1/24, players will be required to wear a neck guard anytime they are on the ice. Please plan accordingly to have this available as players will not be allowed on the ice without one.
Why are neck guards required by NHA?
- USA hockey passed this requirement in January of 2024 for all US hockey players. It has been long recommended, but now is an official requirement to increase protection from skate lacerations.
What kind of neck guards are allowed?
- They can be incorporated into a cut resistant shirt, or can be a stand-alone neck guard. They must be commercially bought. They should cover as much of the exposed neck as possible.
What happens if I forget my neck guard?
- As neck guards are required for all practices and games, including skating instruction, you will not be allowed to participate without it. Failure to wear a neck guard during practices could incur fines for the association (at the responsibility of the player). During games, there will be one warning and then a team misconduct penalty of 10 minutes.
Can a parent sign a waiver saying I don't have to wear a neck guard?
- No
Are neck guards part of the NHA Equipment Rental program?
- No. Due to the variability in size and preference of style, as well as difficulty in cleaning them for multiple player use, neck guards will not be part of the rental package.
Where can I purchase a neck guard?
- They are available in store at Champion Sports and other hockey retailers.
