Effective Immediately

District 10 Hockey is pausing its End of Game policy for further review, as it has caused some confusion with people thinking it was removing prayer.   It is District 10 Hockey’s goal to keep the arenas on time for games, scrimmages, and practices, along with keeping accommodation of an area for prayer or player gatherings.

Because this confusion has caused some people to think it was removing prayer, it was to make accommodation for prayer, while keeping the ice time with the Arena’s on time for games, scrimmages and practices.

Welcome to the 2025-2026 District 10, Minnesota Hockey, USA Hockey Season

At this time, I would like to thank all the volunteers’ that make District 10 possible, from the D10 Board Members, to the Association Volunteers and Coaches.  Any person that donates their time and talent for the kids is truly a special person, with the love for the game and the kids.

Hockey is a chance for the players, parents, and coaches to meet new friends and to catch up with some old.  Please make every effort to make this year fun for your team and for your opponent.  These years of hockey will be memories that will last you and your child a lifetime, so we all need to work at making sure they are good ones.

Please feel free to contact your League Coordinator if you have any questions regarding your league.  Every year we receive many good suggestions from the parents and family members. Please pass them onto your League Coordinator.

D10 works hard at returning all emails and calls in a time manner, but please remember we all have jobs, and this is what we do for fun.  Most emails and telephone calls will be returned during the evening hours.

The most important thing here is the KIDS. Praise both teams. Let the coach’s coach. Parents be good fans in the stands. Tell your child how proud you are of them after every game, everyone learns from both winning and losing in life, since at the end of the game – it was still, just a game.

D10 follows MNH & USAH Policies, but District 10 is allowed to make those Policies stricter, in which

District 10 has done this with certain policies, so please read the policies.

Changes in the D10 handbook are listed in red bold. 

Please enjoy your season and help whenever you can.  All Association needs help somewhere.

Enjoy the season and most of all have fun!!!!

Colleen Donovan

District 10 MNH Director

D10 Code of Conduct – ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY – District Tournament

District 10 adheres to and enforces a zero-tolerance policy. The policy requires all players, coaches, officials, District 10 Board Members, Association Board Members, Parents and Spectators, to maintain a sportsmanlike and educational atmosphere before, during and after all District 10 scrimmages, games and tournaments.

This includes, and is not limited to, abusive behavior, harassment, bullying, obscene language or gestures, verbal abuse, threats of physical abuse and/or actual physical abuse.
If a spectator(s) conduct becomes so abusive that, in referee(s) opinion, it is distracting from the game or inciting players, the referee(s) will stop the game, with the clock continuing to run, until the spectator is removed from the arena, before the game play will resume.   No added time will be added to the clock for the allotted game time for the time lost for removing a spectator(s) from the arena.
