Frequently Asked Questions

Registering for WHAM

Once you've found a team that you qualify for based on previous experience or an attended assessment, you're ready to register!

Registration will open September 1st and remain open through January 31st. To play in WHAM you must register and pay fees for USA Hockey, Minnesota Hockey and WHAM. This is all done online and complete details about registering online can be found on the Register tab homepage. When your registration is complete, you'll receive a confirmatory email from both USA Hockey and WHAM verifying that all fees have been paid and registration is complete. If registered properly, your name will appear on your selected teams homepage as an officially registered player for that season.

 

This is a brief summary of the steps required to start playing in WHAM, not the complete details. Please check the website and league handbook for complete information. Your team manager will also be helpful in coaching you through this process. You can also email your Division Commissioner or the League Administrator with questions.
