Will this new league have an All-Star game like the EHF?

Yes, all star game at each age group. Only the best kids invited - similar to the current EHF all star game that happens every March. Rumor is they're taking the best of the EHF rules / engagements.

1) All Star game;
2) Only allowed to play against opponents in the new USPHL HPYHL - no playing E9, or EHF;
3) With the exception of this year, tryouts will be before Christmas so the second half of the season is really uncomfortable in the locker room for parents who are moving on and those that don't want to make eye contact;
4) also similar to the current EHF, there will be a posted ranking for each player in the league that changes week to week. The difference is that it will be posted publicly, not like the current EHF player ranking which is only available to coaches.

I just hope they can get past the bus clause to make this work.

All-Star = "Coaches Kid"

See item #4 above. The kid has to be ranked accordingly. Not necessarily coaches kid.

Take "all star" roster when released. Compare with coaches names from league there will be lots of similarities.

I am glad that the All-Star game will continue.

I am simply happy that my son is rostered on an EHF team. The reality is that if he couldn't play EHF hockey, he would have played soccer instead.

So as you can imagine, it was the honor of our lifetimes when he was selected for the EHF All-Stars.

Happy New Year and onward and upward!

My son has never been an EHF All-Star and yet he is in the starting lineup of all his prep school games. How can this be?

u guys are hilarious. but why are you still on the youth board with a preppie?

mom's got skills

Tournament on the Cape this weekend. Waiting for my "Town" kid's practice.
The tournament ran longer than expected.
Finals, an EHF team against a "Town" team from New York.
02' Level the EHF team was terrible. No puck movement, standing still and lack of any defense. Goalie was very good, "Gabe" they were yelling. No he is not my kid! Yes they did make it to the finals, but I am glad I did not have to watch that all weekend.
I know not all the EHF teams are like this but it just goes to show if you have some money you can get your kid on a team.
It seems to be very watered down.
Just to have some fathers say their kid plays in the EHF with their buddies at work.
Letters do not mean too much!

First, letters do mean a lot (or too much as referenced above). That's why "they" are starting the USPHLHPY Division. You'll have USPHLHPYDN and USPHLHPYDS. If its a good product you may end up with USPHLHPYDE and USPHLHPYDW. SO letters do mean something...especially on a league tracksuit.

I agree with the money statement from the posters above. If you have money (or a bus or a van) and can move past the so called "bus clause" to get this league going, you will really impress your buddies at work.

I also have an 04 and couldnt resist..shame on me.
