How much does your beer league season cost?

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.

I take it this is a de-alcoholized beer league.

Jesus, some of you guys get off cheap. In Toronto (and I use that term advisedly since most multipad commercial arena complexes capable of running serious leagues are out in the godforsaken suburbs) we pay about $8300 including 13% Tax for a 25 game season (23 games plus at least 2 playoffs). Up until now have been playing 12-10-10 stop time. This year 15-15-15 running clock.

I expected Manhattan to be more expensive but when Abu Dhabi has cheaper ice than Canada...

My second night a week is a bit of an aberration. A more friendly non competitive league where they assign you teams. 30 game season 15-15-15 running clock for $440 although that is the price for Friday which is less than other nights

Geeez, $9700 here in San Jose.

I feel you. I'm jealous of all these cheap prices I see. Sounds like San Jose isn't much different in price than Vancouver. Most of our leagues run 30 games, but fees are typically around 11,000-12,500. That works out to about the same as 9700 for 24.

I believe for ours we pay $500 on a team of 15 skaters. That is for 32 games + 2 playoffs games, with the potential to play up to 4 playoff games.
Our rep charges us an extra $50 a year which goes into either a new jersey, socks, skate mat, etc.

The rink ..too often
The league costs are the cheap part.

I can throw on $60-$80 or more a week in other costs. Couple of pick ups a week, a public session or two and/or a skating coaching session.

Wife starts up about it, but I don't smoke, don't drink out much or pay gym fees anywhere and even cut my own hair. I'll wager there are people out there wasting plenty more on far less rewarding or enjoyable activities.

Use a bit it gas too getting there and back.

What else is it costing on top of league charges?

I play in leagues in Westminster and Fort Collins, CO. Both are ~$450 for a winter season of ~20 games plus playoffs. Summer season is around $250 for about 10 games plus playoffs. Westminster has a team fee option too and I think it's $7000 for the winter.

I think it's the largest North America adult league, primarily because it's at a 4-rink facility that has scheduled game starts as late as 11:30pm :(

We pay 42$/player for a season with around 16 games + playoff.
It's a very beer-y league though with no hitting and no slapshots. So anyone can join.

Also in Winnipeg: $5800 taxes included for 32 games plus another game or two depending on play-offs.

My team has 15 plus a goalie (who is paying) so that works out to $362.50 per player taxes included. We're getting really sick jerseys plus premium socks which brings each player's tally to about $460 including team fees as well. Top-shelf baby! lol :nod:

Correction, our fees jumped a small amount this season: $5950 for the same season length and details. About $375 per player (rounded up) for my team at 15 players and goalie.

8 rinks in Vancouver has 6 rinks (1 figure skating rink, 1 soccer field). With games that late as well.

$350 per person
14 Games + 1 "Playoff" game
Games start at 8:45PM or 9:45PM
12minRun-12minStop-12minRun
No score-keeping
No individual stats
No website posting even wins/losses
Only around 50 people register...so usually two teams
The "Captains" force you to switch teams when not enough people show up.
The "Captains" also will on a game-by-game basis join-up and play on the same team (when not enough people show up...or if they just feel like it)
No over-sight by League manager or coordinator
They only provide one Referee
When not enough people show up the Referee will simply dress-out in hockey gear and play with the players, meaning there is no ref.
The rink forces you to register with USA Hockey- which I am generally OK with; however, based on my conversation with USA Hockey and my understanding of their rules and bylaws- the program my rink puts together shouldn't even qualify for USA Hockey.

...Needless to say, I'm looking for a new place to play. :shakehead

Oh, yes- no jerseys provided by the teams- you get your own dark or light. No number requirements, we had like three "8's" on the team last year.

5500 for a team, so about 550 per player or less depending on how many guys we get
10 teams in our current division
20 games + at least 1 playoff game
scorekeepers + 2 refs
we get to pick our goal song with is kinda cool

only real downside is the crappy ice and smaller rink

$3000 per team for 10 games.

Usually between 200-300 per guy depending on roster number.


Was thinking of joining another league that charges $5000 for 16 games. Wish there was a 32 game season around here, I hate the month break every 12 weeks.
