    Back in 2014, there was an ECC Hockey league. It was won by the Borrego Road Runners, beating La_Ciudad 3-0 in the postseason final. (link here; https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/echl-summer-champions-tournament.102847/) Later that year, a winter season was arranged, although it never came to fruition and never played a game. In 2016, a new league was arranged, being won by the Scarborough Lions, beating Honolulu 3-0 home and away. A new league was arranged in early 2017, but no teams joined. This will be the fifth league, and hopefully the third season.

    The rules are below (sorry for the wall of text)
    Arenas
    • The bare minimum an arena may consist of is a rink with fences round the edge. Dressing rooms and spectator stands are recommended, but not required.
    • The size of the rink may be between 40x20 and 50x30.
    • Space must be given (at least 2 blocks) around the outside of the rink.
    • The only markings that are required on the rink are;
      • Sidelines (with 2 blocks space outside them)
      • A halfway circle.
        • This circle must be 3 or 4 blocks wide (3 if the width of the rink is an odd number, and 4 if an even number.), and the halfway line either 1 or 2 blocks thick (1 if the length of the rink is an odd number, and 2 if an even number.)
    • Rinks may either be made out of regular ice or packed ice.
      • If regular ice, then markings may either be made out of;
        • Any block that does not emit light, under the ice.
        • Carpet, placed over the ice.
      • If packed ice, then markings must be made out of carpet, placed over the ice.
    • You must provide directions to the rink in your application.
    • Rinks must be ready for use by 31st September.
    • Goals must either be 2 blocks high and 3 wide (if the width of the rink is an odd number) or 2 high and 4 wide (if it is an even number)
    Teams
    • You must have a finalised squad by 31st September.
      • Squads may consist of between 1 and 10 players.
    • Team names must consist of up to 30 characters in 1 or 2 word(s).
    • Team names must only consist of letters and spaces.
    Rules of play
    • The team playing at home must provide a horse, donkey, mule, sheep, pig, cow or mooshroom.
      • Chickens are not allowed because they are too small and often fly off.
      • Llamas are also banned because they may injure people.
    • The object of the game is to push the animal into the opposition's goal and defend your goal.
    • A face-off only occurs at the start of play. If a goal is scored, the animal is given to the defending team.
    • It is prohibited for players to interfere with the animal in any way other than pushing it. This includes;
      • Leashing it (the referee may do so to stop play)
      • Attacking it.
      • Mounting it (the referee may do so to stop play)
    • If spectators enter the rink or interfere with the animal, the referee must stop play. He may abandon the match if they do not stop, and has the right to eject spectators from the rink.
    • A game may be won by either scoring three goals, or by winning at the end of the game.
    • Games last 5 minutes.
    • Teams for matches consist of 3 players. You must have at least one player, otherwise you lose by default.
    Rules of the league
    • There is a 10k entrance fee. This fee is needed to pay for the prizes for the winners.
    • Each team will play all other teams home and away in the season. There is no postseason tournament.
    • If there are less than 5 teams, then the prize for the league winners is the sum of all the admission fees. If there are 5 or more teams, then the 2nd-placed team gets 20k, and the winners get the rest of the admission fees.
    • Points are awarded as follows;
      • Win by scoring 3 goals; 3 points.
      • Win at full time; 2 points.
      • Draw; 1 point.
      • Lose; 0 points.
    • Teams must have a home and away kit. They must have a different coloured shirt.
      • The away kit is used if both home kits can't be used.
    • If you do not show up to a match, your team loses 3-0.
    • If two teams have the same number of points, goal difference is used. If they still are tied, goals scored is used. If they are still tied and it is the end of the season, a play-off match is held at a randomly selected ground.
    • If you can't provide an animal, your team loses 3-0.
    • You may only play for one team.

    You can host a team at either or both of them, just fill out the app. However, you can only play for one team.

    What I meant by that is I do not plan on having my own team or playing, but if others do not have a rink and would like to play then could use those locations.

    If you decide to do this again, please let me know as I would be interested in donating for the prize pool. I also have just purchased an awesome arena and you would be welcome to practice/play there. It is at /warp Scarborough and much easier to get to for your team :D
