MCHL Update – Teamsnap Tips for Players and Team Staff

 

We are thrilled to launch the MCHL beginning this Sunday October 29th!

The MCHL kicks off the season featuring an expanded 94 teams with over 1,400 players and builds on the long tradition of recreational club hockey in HNL’s Eastern Zone.  We are continuing to roll out the TeamSnap functionality and waiting for several additional rosters.

All Week 1 games are posted on the site, https://mchl.ca/ and appear in the Teamsnap Mobile app.  The 9 Member Associations would like to extend a sincere and BIG thank you to MCHL Administrator, Genny Spearing, who has gone above and beyond to get this season up and running with so many new features.  Thank you Genny!
