Irish Youth Hockey League
About the Irish Youth Hockey League
The Irish Youth Hockey League (“IYHL”) was organized in 1968 and was dedicated then as it is today to offering the youth in the South Bend and surrounding communities of Northern Indiana the opportunity to learn and enjoy the sports of ice hockey and figure skating. The league has grown from 50 boys that participated in 1968 to over 400 boys and girls today. The IYHL's season begins in August with our Learn-To-Play program, Conditioning clinics, and Travel Tryouts. Our Fall Camp starts in early September and League play begins early November and runs through mid-March.

Maximum capacity is 30 participants. The program will consist of 30 minutes of drills, along with 45 minutes of scrimmage time. Ideally, the group of 30 skaters will be divided into three groups of 10 for all drills and scrimmages.
