MN Youth Hockey age ranges

Post by The51 »

Right now, the age for eligibility for MN hockey is June 1 - May 31 of the following year.

Was talking with a fellow dad, has this always been the case? He thought he remembered it being September 1 - August 31 at some point.

Does anyone know the answer to this?

I believe it changed from July or August to June a couple years ago.

I was able to find an article with some better search parameters than my first try... you are correct it switched from July 1 to June 1 for the 2020-21 season
