This is the website for the Summerside Recreational Hockey League and the Summerside Industrial Hockey League. As well now home to the Summerside Spring Recreational Hockey League. You can check out the site for rosters, stats, news and other information about our leagues.

If you are looking to play, you may contact league president and site administrator, Aaron Doyle at any time. We do accept new players on registration night, however we do not accept full teams. We hold our registration night in early October and our league begins play the first week of November. We take a short break at Christmas and then finish up at the end of March.

The SRHL is very proud to host the 'Shockers Mardi-Gras Recreational Hockey Tournament' every spring (*March 30th - April 1st, 2012) and is now becoming known as one of the largest recreational hockey tournaments in Eastern Canada. Every year this tournament grows in popularity and this season is no exception as we've been receiving inquiries from all over North America. This tournament is open to both male and female teams and provides an excellent rec hockey/sociallizing atmosphere. The SRHL is your #1 headquarters for rec hockey fun and Shock's Mardi Gras is a tournament every "true" rec hockey team should participate in at some point.

The Summerside Recreational Hockey League was established in 1967/1968, by then league president, Ron MacArthur and was at the time, the only rec hockey league of it's kind in North America. The four team, recreational league was developed to promote fun and community fellowship within an "open draft" hockey organization. We are one of the oldest rec hockey leagues east of Montreal and have played continuously since 1967.

The Summerside Industrial Hockey League was established in 2008 to create a competitive mens Recreational Hockey League in the Summerside area. With no body contact or no slapshots, the league will be simply highly skilled players playing as hard as they can from start to finish. Most players have played Junior A or B, Midget AAA or AA, Senior, or university hockey at some point of there hockey career. That being said if you didnt play one of them leagues does not mean you cant play in the SIHL. Just know that most guys are pretty competitive and play hard the whole game. They take no shifts off, and expect all players to play the same, clean, hard, and right till the buzzer goes at the end of the game. Lots of skill and speed will make playing in the SIHL a great time for all players.

The Summerside Spring Rec. Hockey League is in its first season. This SSRHL will be a yearly tradition each Spring with players from all levels of hockey young and old. All rosters are now full with 13 skaters and a goalie. This league is made up of players from age 16-60, there for skill level is at both ends of the spectrum. The SSRHL will play 10 games of Round Robin, then a crossover, then a final. Rules will be the same as SIHL with no redline. If all goes well in this first year of play we will arrange a Summerside Fall Rec. Hockey League to start play when the ice is availalbe at Credit Union Place in late August or early September.

All leagues are open to anyone, 19 years of age or older. There are no restrictions on skill level; all players are ranked by a number system, following our annual rookie game dubbed - The Ice-Breaker Challenge. A league draft is then held, where team reps select from the registered base of players to ensure four well-balanced teams. Balancing of teams promotes sportsmanship, fun and competitiveness within the league.

This 2011-2012 season marks over fortyfour years of continuous play for the SRHL. There are very few, if any, rec hockey leagues in North America that can boast about that and it's something to be very proud of. Here's a brief outline of the league.

- Each team plays twice weekly at 'Credit Union Place' in Summerside. 
- All of our games are officiated by one referee and one time/score keeper.
- Our season consists of approximately 32-34 games, including a play-off championship.
- At season's end, an awards banquet is held in Summerside.
- Enrollment in the league is limited to 52 players.

Each year, team reps will draft players on to their teams, where completely new teams are formed. As a result, players will get to know each other and in many cases, would have played together at one time or another in past seasons.

In mid December, a league executive meeting is held to ensure that the teams are indeed well balanced and if needed, trades would then occur.

All major infractions result in suspensions. Any unsportsmanlike incident will go under review and guilty parties will be dealt with accordingly. All suspensions may be appealed to the disciplinary committee, which consists of team reps and league officers. Disciplinary committee's final judgement will stand.
