Welcome to the online home of Bethel Park Inline Hockey!
If you are interested in inline hockey, you came to the right place. If you have questions, send them to info@BPInlineHockey.org.
Rosters Posted
The rosters for the 2007-2008 season have been posted on the teams page. Unfortunately, it was necessary to limit the number of players on each team. Players who are not on the first team will be included on the team's roster that is submitted to the league. Those players are encouraged to practice (at no cost) with the team, to continue their development and keep in playing shape. If you have any questions about the teams, please contact Chris Farren or send email to info@BPInlineHockey.org.
(Optional) Fundraising!
Find some sponsors…play for free!
If you would like to play for free, it can be done by taking advantage of our new fundraising program. The program is intended to reduce out-of-pocket costs for each of us and to help the league grow. In short, members who sign-up sponsors will get a rebate on their payments to the league. More information is available in the fundraising handout.
If you need additional sponsor sign-up forms, they are available here.
If you have any questions about the fundraising program, please send email to info@BPInlineHockey.org.
AAU Membership
AAU memberships expire each year on August 31.
To renew, go to the AAU website and click the "Join AAU Now" link. Players need to join in the "athlete" category. Coaches and other volunteers need to join as a "non-athlete." It is not necessary to enter a group code. The regular, $12, membership is sufficient for BPIH, but you should read the details to determine whether the "added benefit" membership is something you need. The AAU has also added multi-year memberships.
Remember to print your membership card when you are done, because it will not be mailed to you. You will only receive an email confirmation. Your coach needs a copy before September 1.

If you are new to inline hockey, some additional information is available on this site.
