This is Mid-Am Hockey . . .

USA Hockey, Inc., is the national governing body for the sport of ice hockey in the United States. It is headquartered in Colorado Springs, CO. USA Hockey is the official representative to United States Olympic Committee (USOC) and the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF). In this role, USA Hockey is responsible for organizing and training teams for international tournaments that include the IIHF World Championships and the Olympic Winter Games. USA Hockey also coordinates activities with other national ice hockey federations around the world and, closer to home, works with the National Hockey League (NHL) and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) on matters of mutual interest.

USA Hockey is divided into 12 districts throughout the United States. Each district has a registrar to register teams, a referee-in-chief to register officials and organize clinics, a coach-in-chief to administer educational programs for coaches, a risk manager to oversee liability and safety programs and an initiation program administrator to facilitate learn-to-play programs for youth players and their parents.
