2023 JPOL – THE START OF A NEW DECADE!
The 10th Annual Junior Premier Outdoor League (JPOL) came to a close on Sunday, June 11th with the crowning of our Champions in Region 5, 6, and 7, as well as, our U14 Combine and JPOL Elite. Our Region 4 and 8 Championships were crowned last weekend, June 3 & 4.
New this year is the U16 JPOL Elite. Just like the U19 JPOL Elite that took flight in 2022, these events were created to showcase some of the top youth clubs in the US, while playing in a format mirroring that of NCAA / FIH Hockey. All games are played on water-based turf, with time stoppage for every goal, short corner, injury, etc.
The goal of the JPOL Elite is to create stronger competition across all regions and to make players, coaches, officials, and spectators more familiar with the NCAA format thus creating an easier transition to the next level of competition in their young and promising hockey careers.
Over the course of the spring season the benefits of participation can be attested across all regions. Improvements in the quality of performance from the first weekend in April to the various Championships are commendable and reflects the commitment of the players, parents, coaches, umpires, technical staff, and many others.
“This was our club’s first year competing in JPOL. We have appreciated the communication and professionalism from the leadership team. The organization on game day, staffing has been outstanding, as well. Scheduling wise, we’ve appreciated having games closely spaced together.” Next Level, MD
At this time, let us recognize and celebrate all the victors and show our appreciation to all participants, officials, supporters, volunteers and sponsors.
The continued success of this league would not be possible without the support of many who tirelessly give of their time and experience. Much appreciation to the club directors, coaches and their membership who join us each spring to make this league possible. Many thanks to the umpire managers (UMs), technical delegates (TDs) and their staff of dedicated technical officers (TO) and umpires. You all give so much of you time and talent to be part of this event and its continued successes.
Special thanks and appreciation to the parent judges who stepped up each week to give a helping hand at the technical T\table, making sure that the results, game clock and statistics are correct. We thank you for your service!
To our dedicated JPH Directors, Lurah Hess, Kim Scott, Rachael Bloemker, and Nigel Traverso, for the countless hours of dedication behind the scenes that allow JPH to achieve and celebrate this milestone of ten successful years of event planning and organization. Thank you all for continuing to Grow the Game!
A shout out to those collegiate coaches who took the time to attend the numerous competitions in each region and to show their continued support. It is always a pleasure to see you all in attendance showing your support for this event and hope you will continue to attend and recruit at all of our JPH events. We believe that this is a perfect arena for recruiting and in most cases just a short drive away.
Much appreciation to the university and private institutions for granting access and use of your facilities year after year. We hope to continue developing great working and supportive relationships and that you continue to make your facilities affordable and accessible to us.
Special recognition to our major sponsor Rothman Orthopedics and Harrow Sports USA – Official Individual Awards Sponsor. Thank you for your continued support!
