PRIHA MEMBERSHIP REGISTRATION

The Puerto Rico Ice Hockey Association has two membership categories: "Athletes" and "Volunteers" Below you will find links to the registration forms for both types of members. Click the buttons below to go to either section.

​

The registration "Athletes" is for anyone who plays hockey at any level including those that want to start playing hockey (in any format - ice, inline, and ball hockey). Please see the membership types and guidelines below under "Athlete-Membership Structure." At this time general membership dues not incur any fees while event registration does incur fees.

 

The registration form for "Volunteers" is for anyone else wanting to become a member and get involved that does not play hockey OR for those that want to both play and volunteer with the association.

​

Once completing an athlete-member registration, athletes will receive communications via email and Sport Ninja regarding events and will have to register for events separately.

​

Please navigate to the Event Registration page for events.

COMMUNITY CHAPTERS

Community Chapters are a way for our concentrated communities to stay connected and have a higher frequency of events both on and off the ice. Currently these events are scheduled in the following regions: Northeast (Hub: Tri-state area with other events hosted in greater Philadelphia and Boston areas), Southeast (Hub: greater Orlando area), Midwest (Hub: Chicagoland area). All Community Chapter events will be posted for everyone to see in SportNinja for all registered members. If you are interested in hosting a community chapter event in your area contact hockeyadmin@puertoricoicehockey.com
