RULES & ETHICS COMMITTEE

The R & E Committee is appointed for the purpose of investigating and submitting findings with respect to alleged violations by corporation members, players, coaches, employees or agents of any applicable by-laws, rules and regulations, and/or policies, whether promulgated by the Amateur Hockey Association of Illinois (AHAI), the Northern Illinois Hockey League (NIHL), USA Hockey, the corporation, or other governing body having jurisdiction over the corporation, and its members, coaches, and players.

Suspensions and/or Disciplinary Hearings shall be conducted pursuant to USA Hockey By-Laws and Rules in effect at the time of the alleged violation or rule infraction. The current USA Hockey By-Laws and Rules can be found on the USA Hockey website in the annual guide.
