2024-25 Season Registration is OPEN!

A current 2024-25 USA Hockey registration is required: No player can be registered without it. If you have already registered for next season with USA Hockey, please simply have the number handy. (There is a link to USA Hockey in the Registration as-needed for this or [CLICK HERE])

NOTE: USA Hockey updated their Registration Fees in the 2022-23 season - they should remain the same this season | plus $10 or $15 (based on player's age) to our parent/state association (Land Of Enchantment Amateur Hockey Association (LOEAHA)).

Using a browser (i.e. Chrome or Edge) has proven to have the best results when registering (preferably on a desktop/laptop, can work in a phone browser). 

DO NOT use the SportsEngine App for registration!

Please work through each step in order and click the Continue button at the bottom of each page.

Be sure to read through the Registration Reminders and Miscellaneous Registration Info sections further down the page.

Thank you for your continued support for our program!

Volunteer Information!

There is an expectation that one parent per player family will volunteer for an additional game role:

Scorekeeper
Timekeeper
Penalty Box Monitor
Locker Room Monitor

There is additional training tied to these - and all must register with USA Hockey (no cost for Volunteers).  The Scorekeeper & Timekeeper training will be in mid-October at the MAC (class for Scorekeeper, in the rink for Timekeeper). 

Penalty Box Monitor and Locker Room Monitor must also complete a background screening and the SafeSport certification.  All details found on the Volunteering page HERE.

In order to be rostered as a volunteer on your teams, we have our required Volunteer Registration:  CLICK HERE


Registration Reminders:

The updated 2024-2025 USA Hockey Age Classifications PDF can be found below.  (Remember that 6U officially falls under 8U according to USA Hockey and is NOT a separate division in their classifications...)

The Season Cost charts are also listed below for 6U thru the newly-clarified 16U and 18U.  Due to ice and referee costs going up, the season costs did go up minimally as well.

=============== PAYMENT OPTIONS ===============

The default payment option will be Pay in Full. There will still be the Payment Plan option to choose as well (except for Varsity as they will be PRACTICES only with us & play GAMES with Santa Fe this season).

Payment Plan
We (NMAHA) had to recreate the 5-month payment plan in SportsEngine this season as they changed it to a 4-month plan by default. For NMAHA, it will remain FIVE total payments due on the 4th of each month (intended for October, November, December, January, & February to match our season)

The first monthly payment will be made on October 4th. Please ensure the payment method/card you use will be functional for the FULL Season. If your October 4th (or any...) payment is late, please your player(s) will not be able to go onto the ice for practices until it is completed. 

Also remember that Uniform items (jersey & socks) are due up front (either as part of the Pay in Full option or in addition to the $50 initial payment + processing if using the Payment Plan).

To complete registration payment through our secure site, please have your Visa or MasterCard information available. If your card will expire during the season and you are on the Payment Plan, please work with our Treasurer to ensure the new card is applied once you have it.

Contact nmahatreasurer@gmail.com for any questions.

===== High School is now 16U/18U =====

As of the LOEAHA (state affiliate over all local Associations) quarterly meeting in May 2024, what was High School hockey as Junior Varsity and Varsity under RMHSHA rules will now align under USA HOCKEY as 16U/18U going forward in the state of New Mexico.

As of the LOEAHA quarterly meeting on Sunday, August 25th, 2024 - ALL New Mexico Associations agreed that for House/Recreational hockey we will COMBINE 14U and 16U into 16U for 13-, 14-, and 15-year-olds and 18U for 16-, 17-, and 18-year-olds to ensure we meet the minimum team numbers.

There will be NO separate 14U (unless the numbers work for BOTH levels to split them):

16U (Scorpions) - birth years 2009, 2010, 2011 (ages 13-15)
18U (Cougars)   - birth years 2006, 2007, 2008 (ages 16-18)*

* We will NOT have the numbers to field an 18U team this season.  Please reach out to Santa Fe Hockey Association as an alternative.

The 16U as described here (combined with 14U) will use RED jerseys (Home) and the new WHITE jerseys (Away) under the Scorpions naming.

If there are any questions, please reach out to our VP of U16/U18, Ashley Brunette at nmaha.16u.18u@gmail.com prior to completing your registration.

=============== UNIFORMS ===============

We are NOT planning to change our jersey/sock vendor again this year - those costs should stay the same as last season.

We are FINALLY adding a white (AWAY) jersey for Mini-Mite (6U)/Mite (8U) thru Bantam (14U) Midget (16U) Scorpions!  There will be a white/AWAY jersey required with each registration at these levels.

For home games our RED jerseys/socks still in playable condition will be used.  If your returning player does need a RED jersey and/or game socks due to size and/or wear, please include this in your registration (cost is still $55 for the jersey, $30 per pair of socks).  Additional game socks will still be a selectable option as well ($30/pair).
