Minnesota Hockey Youth Rules and Regulations outline the process for player participation in their community-based amateur hockey program. Section IV. Participation outlines this obligation. 

Sometimes Dodge County Youth Hockey is not able to make a team for every level (i.e. A, B, C) of every Level of Play (i.e. Squirt, 12U, Bantam). Some parents feel their athlete would benefit from playing at the absent level. In this case they may apply for a waiver from their association membership requirements. 

This is a link to the waiver form. Please fill it out and email to rory.haney@dcyh.org.

Here is an excerpt from that rule book:
