About the Premier Hockey League
The PHL
The Premier Hockey League has been successfully operating in Western Canada for 3 seasons. Founders Kelly Bruce and Kevin Hill have over 50 years’ experience playing, coaching, and running successful Hockey programs. The League was started to provide a different development model that allows players to play hockey at a higher level than minor Hockey allows.
The PHL runs a league for its member organizations. These member organizations are independently owned and operated and have chosen to participate in the PHL as all or part of their teams development.
The PHL continues to grow every year. We started in 2019 with 4 teams in one division and this year we expect to have 50+ teams in from Alberta, British Columbia and Montana.
Mission Statement
The PHL was founded to provide an option for teams, coaches, players and families to develop young players at a level consistent with their abilities.
The PHL strives to improve each year by:
- Recruiting & training on ice officials
- Communication between teams, coaches & managers
- Rules that improve the quality of our development model
- Affiliation access to higher leagues
- Arena locations to offer each area team a reasonable travel schedule
- A reasonable schedule of showcases to allow to more development ice & exhibition games
It is our hope that young athletes participating in the League will enjoy a fun and developmental experience while pursuing their dreams.
League Format
All league games will take place on Showcase weekends. Each team will play 4 games over a 2-3 day weekend once per month, culminating in a championship showcase weekend in March.
There will be non-contact divisions for U9 Novice, U11 Atom Minor & Major.
There will be modified contact divisions for U13 PeeWee Minor & Major
There will be contact divisions for U15 Bantam Minor & Major and U18 Midget.
