2018 National Championships
USA Hockey Announces Dates and Locations for the 2018 National Championships. The 2018 Girls Tier 1 and Tier II National Championships will be held in Marlboro, MA April 5-9, 2018, additionally, Women’s A, B & C will be in Bedford, MA April 5-8, 2018. Why are we telling you about the 2018 National Championships in 2017? Because the crews for the national championships are selected from Level 4 Officials. If you want to have a shot at working a national championship, you must be a Level 4 for the 2017-2018 season. For those who plan ahead, plan on registering as a Level 4 (you must be a Level 3 now) next season.
Crews are selected from across the nation, but traditionally, the districts hosting the events have more Officials than those who have to travel. However, just because a national championship is not local to the district, we have often sent Officials across the country to work national championship games. The key is the Level 4 certification. So if you want to work at the national level, you must improve your officiating skills to attain Level 4 status.
