We have been working hard at scheduling the 2020 GLS High School Hockey League and finally have a date and time.

Great Lakes Select Hockey League Update 8-31-2020
The GLS Committee wants to update you to where we stand as of today Monday 8-31-2020:
The plan is to continue with the GLS league and evaluation skate. In a report today the Detroit Free Press reported: “Whitmer re-opening gyms, theaters, ice rinks….”
If this is true, we are getting closer to a GLS season. We will hope to announce the Evaluation Skate date/time in the next week but we are targeting a weekend date in September.
Thank you for being patient, if you would like to be removed from the Evaluation Skate and have your money refunded please send an email to : glshockeyleague@gmail.com
Evaluation Skate Update 8-14-2020
Great Lakes Select Hockey League
The plan is to continue with the GLS league and evaluation skate. The questions that we cannot answer yet is when the evaluation skate will take place and how long the season will last.
SCS Civic Arena and McCann Arena at the University Liggett School remain closed and these are the rinks that GLS plans on using for the 2020 fall season. The evaluation skate will take place on a Saturday/Sunday following either of two arenas opening back up. The GLS committee is in contact with the management of both arenas and we will notify all registered hockey players via email, twitter, on the website when the arena is back open. There are a limited number of spots still available for the evaluation skate. When a date/time/location is announced for the evaluation skate, the registration will be reopened.
Thank you for being patient, if you would like to be removed from the Evaluation Skate and have your money refunded please send an email to : glshockeyleague@gmail.com
Evaluation Reschedule Skate 7-30-2020
Potential Players and Parents:
The city of St. Clair Shores just notified the GLS committee of the following: "The SCS Civic Arena is closed to skating due to the executive order issued by Governor Whitmer yesterday (7-29-2020). Starting Friday, July 31, 2020, SCS Civic Arena will be closed until further notice."
This results in GLS needing to postpone the evaluation skate scheduled for Saturday, August 1, 2020 until the executive order is lifted. Our plan is to have a 2020 fall hockey season, and we will continue to update everyone as we receive more information weekly.
Since you are currently registered and paid for the August 1st evaluation, you will be notified when a new date/time/location is scheduled. If GLS is not able to host an evaluation skate for the fall 2020 season, you will be refunded your entry fee of $65.
If you would no longer like to play for the GLS fall league, please send an email to glshockeyleague@gmail.com and your $65 will be refunded.
We are disappointed to share this message but we will all be skating again soon.
