USPHL Announces Non-USA Hockey 18U Youth League
The Tier I Hockey Federation is excited to announce the creation of the United States Premier Hockey League (USPHL) 18U Division for the 2025-26 season. This division will serve independent Tier I / AAA / Academy teams in North America and, as with the rest of the USPHL, will not be a part of USA Hockey. Nine organizations have committed to assembling 10 teams for the USPHL 18U inaugural season, with more coming in a later announcement. The USPHL 18U Division will be administrated by the Tier 1 Hockey Federation (“THF”). The THF serves as a direct pathway for junior and college hockey with over 50 organizations and almost 300 teams from 9U-18U. The new USPHL 18U Division will play 40 games in a competitive mix of intra-division games along with attending USPHL Showcases, playing in a junior hockey atmosphere.
