Stevenson Patriots Hockey
Fall/Winter Season
The season promises to provide our student-athletes with outstanding opportunities to compete in high school hockey. As one of only a few high school sponsored hockey programs in Illinois. We plan to field a Varsity Team and two Junior Varsity Teams (JV Gold and JV White). Hockey is a lettered sport at Stevenson High School and our teams play in the most competitive Illinois High School league in the state.

Where
The Stevenson Hockey club primarily skates out of Twin Rinks Ice Pavilion in Buffalo Grove. Most home games and practices will be held here. Occasionally there may be a practice at Glacier, West Meadows, Orbit, Top Shelf Ice (Gurnee) or Pleasant Prairie.
Practices
On average both JV teams and Varsity practice three times per week during either 60 or 90 minute slots.
Games
JV Gold (JVG) and Varsity both play in the Scholastic Hockey League (SHL). The SHL plans to field another division for JV White (JVW) to play in. Between regular season league games, playoffs, exhibition games and tournaments Varsity averages 50-65 games and JV averages 40-50.
