AWHL Registration

Register by September 15 to secure your spot!

We will close registration after 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, September 15 in order to create teams and finalize the schedule. If you register after the 15th, you will be put on a waitlist and assigned to a team if space allows.

LEAGUE-FORMED TEAMS

Players who want to be placed on teams formed by the league should use the League-Formed Teams registration link below. All Recreational players should use this link.

All of our Recreational level teams are league-formed, and we plan to have one league-formed team in each of the Intermediate and Advanced levels  (subject to change depending on interest).

The 2024-2025 season cost is $450 for players and $75 for goalies. Payment plans are available.

PLAYER-FORMED TEAMS

Players who are already on a team and will be paying their team representative directly should use the below link. All players need to register with the league regardless of if they are playing on a league managed team or a player managed team.

We will have no player-formed teams at the Recreational level and at least 3 player-formed teams in each of the Intermediate and Advanced levels.

The 2024-2025 team fee for player-formed teams is $6,500.

To improve access to this sport we love, AWHL awards full ($450.00) and partial ($225.00) scholarships to applicants at the board's discretion. 
 
We will be offering 2 full scholarships this year, with more potentially offered if funding allows.
