How much does your beer league season cost?

[JoeCool16]

$250 for about 13 games plus 1 final playoff to determine league champ (top two teams play each other, then the next two, and so on). This is in Surrey at the Surrey Sport and Leisure Centre.

Good price and they provide the jersey, but I'm getting tired of them. One game a week and there are lots of weeks off, the reffing has been getting worse, and they're running the time very, very lax. It's 20-20-20 runtime, but they'll usually shave off a bit by letting it run during period intermission.

I was thinking ASHL or Coast Hockey, but it's quite a jump in price.

I've never played in a league with so many games as you guys. Do you guys play more than once a week? Or is the season 30 weeks long?

 

[Blufreezy]

I think I payed $375 for summer league (16 games + 2 playoffs)

and this winter season is costing me $520 (I believe 23 or 24 games + 2 playoffs)

12 (12 minute stop time) games plus playoffs. Which is one game in the first round and one game in the second round, is $3500 a team. When you sign up, your team also gets one free hour of ice time a season to use as a practice time. We play at an ECHL arena, so on occasion we get free tickets to stuff going on at the arena also. Last season I got free tickets to both nights of the college classic, which turned out to be some very good hockey.

We play one game a week. Depending on which division you play in, you either play later games during the week (8:30- 9:30 start times) or on the weekend which can be anywhere from 11:45 AM start time (which really suck) to 5:30 PM start time. We've got 3 seasons a year. So if your team plays all three seasons its $10,500 for 36 games plus playoffs.

It used to be a great a league to play in, before the old director quit. Stats were always updated within a day of playing, the director was friendly and cared about the league, we even had an Allstar game. Now under this new guy, stats/standings are updated once a month, the Allstar game is gone, and any comments/questions/concerns should be kept to yourself as he doesn't want to hear it.

summer league was 15 games due to a odd number of teams we would hve a off week and play 2 games another week. winter league is 25 games 1 a week

In Germany:
ca. 260$ per season for me. 1h30 min every monday plus 1 or 2 weekend games every month

 

[robmneilson]

I started playing in NYC and now have moved to Houston. It seems like my beer league fee is always around $330.00. Most of the leagues give you 12 games, some 15 plus playoffs.

 

[OpenIceHit42]

$420 for 20 games plus playoffs.

 

[Valorn83]

Cost for me was $145 for eight games with early registration. League decided to break up seasons into 8, 16, and 8 game lengths. Games are 3-15 minutes periods stop time. The league did announce that the cost is likely to $20 per game.

That's not bad, how long's the season?

 

[MKMM]

That's not bad, how long's the season?

From mid September until the end of march/mid April. The arena is used by a Team in the 3rd German League. So there is ice as long they are still in the league or playoffs.

 

[Sitka]

I play in the Middle East. Equivalent to $600, works out to 25 games plus playoffs a season. Plus I play shinny once a week or so.

That's a damn good deal in that case, I'd be pretty happy with that. Need a defensive minded center or winger?

 

[nystromshairstylist]

In NYC:

1) Aviator (Brooklyn): Team fee = $3,450 for 10 games / $230 per skater

2) City Ice (Queens): Team fee = $5,100 for 11 games / $340 per skater

3) Chelsea Piers (Manhattan): Team fee = $9,400 for 16 games / $625 per skater

* Assumes 15 skaters and goalie does not pay.

Long Island / NJ fees are similar to City Ice.

Not bad, it'd cost more here in BC in the leagues that player seasons that long. Whereabouts in the Middle East? I'm betting that there's a wide range of talent in that league, I can't imagine having enough players for many tiers!

 

[gswift]

ASHL coed beginners league costs $3400, 15 skaters @ $225 each & goalie plays for free, for 25 games. We're also getting jersey's & socks for the team at $1800...

 

[Frank Drebin]

ASHL Edmonton is around $11k per team which is about $700 a guy.

28 games I think and up to 4 or 5 playoff games.

25% of the games are after 10pm.

 

[Sleepy]

Good lord, most people here pay less, a lot less, and get more games than in San Jose...

Happy for you all, but FML on these SJ costs/ice times.

 

[Jo Ma]

11,280 usd for a team
15 games plus 1~3 playoff
12 mins running clock x3

 

[Jo Ma]

15 skaters n 1 goalie

In the UAE.

There are two tiers. The higher level is country wide (playing other cities and the national team). For the lower level, Abu Dhabi and Dubai each have a beer league with 5 or 6 teams.

 

[Wilch]

Taiwan is about $200 per person for a 10-15 game season.

Schedule isn't great.

Oh well, you take what you can get.

 

[Cursed Lemon]

Jesus some of you guys pay a LOT, holy crap.

I pay around $450-ish for 24 games, but I'm scorekeeping so I don't actually pay.
