2026-27 High School JV Development

The expansion of High School teams each season offers a terrific opportunity for new players to step into the world of High School Hockey. Our JV-D Division helps build relationships with programs and develops the necessary skills to be effective in high school season play regardless of experience.

JV-D teams may consist of 7-10th grade players from your school or district areas (11-12th graders with league approval). If your individual school or district area cannot field a complete team, you may join with neighboring schools to make a team. JV-D division will play in their own division within The Rinks Rec-League season that will begin in Mid-Sept and will provide schools with the opportunity to build a solid foundation for their High School teams.
