DIHA switching to 2014-2018 IIHF Rulebook

DIHA will be adopting the new International Ice Hockey Federation 2014 – 2018 rule set for all games from this time forward. NZJIHL (U20 League) games and NZWIHL (Womens League) games will be played under the new rules.

Information session about the new rules this Wednesday

Our Head Referee will be hosting a short classroom session to explain the new rules in order to assist players with the transition. The session will be held on Wednesday 29 October at 6 PM in the Warm Room.

This session will run through the major changes to the rules, focusing particularly on hybrid icing (as played in the NHL). Players, coaches and parents will have the opportunity to ask any questions to do with the new rules, or current rules and officiating in general. All are welcomed.

For further information

View the IIHF Hybrid Icing explanatory video for more information about hybrid icing.

Email our Head Referee if you have any questions.
