District Playoffs

District 8 takes great pride in its role as the host for a diverse range of over 22 different levels of Minnesota Hockey District Playoffs. Within our district, multiple teams earn the honor of advancing to the Minnesota Hockey Regionals and subsequently, making appearances in the prestigious Minnesota State Hockey Tournament. This achievement underscores our position as one of the leading districts, highlighting the remarkable depth of talent present among athletes hailing from our various associations. We continue to celebrate and support the growth and excellence of our hockey community.
