PJHL Releases 2013-14 Schedule

Press Release

After months of painstaking  work, the 2013-14 Pacific Junior Hockey League schedule was released today featuring an exciting opening day match-up between long time rivals Richmond and Delta.  The season opener sees the Ice Hawks hosting the defending Champion Sockeyes on September 10th at the Ladner Leisure Centre.  

The PJHL's ten teams will play a 44 game unbalanced schedule that has them facing-off against  their Conference rivals six times and playing four games each versus non-Conference teams.  The league will take its usual break over the Christmas Holidays with no games scheduled from December 23-27.  

There is actually one game that has yet to be scheduled as a Brittain Conference team is dealing with arena availability issues and needs to find an alternate date or venue.  This matter is expected to be resolved shortly.  It promises to be another exciting year as, for the first time, all games will be available for viewing online as the PJHL and FASTHockey.com will be webcasting each game live.  Of course, nothing beats live junior hockey action and the 2013-14 PJHL season  is coming soon to arena near you.
