NORTHWOODS ALLIANCE TEAMS

The Northwoods Hockey Program was established to provide hockey opportunities to Northwoods skaters. Our teams travel to tournaments in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Illinois for competitive games against other spring organizations.  Our goal is to continue improving the quality and reputation of our program, it's skaters, and hockey in Wisconsin each year.  Our Northwoods AA spring teams are called The Alliance. Each of our spring teams are talent based squads that participate in ability based tournaments. 

ALLIANCE TEAM STRUCTURE

The Alliance Teams structure their spring program in collaboration with member organizations of Northwoods including Wausau, Wisconsin Rapids, Rhinelander, & Minocqua.

Team Selection

Skaters are encouraged to attend our evaluations for team placements on our AA Alliance teams. At our evaluations skaters will be placed on our AA, A, or B teams based on the amount of skaters signed up to participate.
