From the outset of the pandemic, USA Hockey has led efforts to provide risk mitigation guidelines and strategies to the hockey community. It is critically important that we remain united and committed in our efforts to help stop the spread of COVID-19 as we head toward Thanksgiving and the upcoming heart of the hockey season.

It's great to see so many programs back on the ice during these challenging times and we must remain diligent in taking necessary precautions to help keep our rinks safe and provide a fun environment. As we navigate COVID together this season, let's all do our part so everyone can enjoy the important physical, mental and social benefits associated with our sport.
