MLRH AAA is the only adult, full-contact, national inline hockey league. With teams along the Eastern Seaboard, from Boston, MA down to Williamsburg, VA, and out West from Sacramento, CA to Phoenix, AZ, MLRH AAA has coast-to-coast reach.

Created in the summer of 2003, MLRH AAA, LLC is the parent organization of the MLRH AAA League. Owned and operated by the Team rightholders and League staff, MLRH AAA, LLC was designed from the ground up to focus on providing the fans with an exciting foray into inline hockey, while freeing the players from day to day team operations and management.

The gameplay of MLRH AAA combines some of the best what makes hockey such an exciting sport, with the great differentiators that inline brings to the game. The game is played with 4 skaters and a goalie, with offsides and icing. The 4 on 4 style ensures an uptempo, high-scoring affair, while the full contact aspect keeps players honest and focused on team play. You don't see many skaters playing with their heads down in this league (at least not for long).

For the 2003-4 season, MLRH AAA has taken a season off from the West Coast to work on building a division as professional and stable as what currently exists out East. We will be holding small, round-robin style events out West during the Winter and Spring, to keep the existing teams in shape, and generate interest from potential new teams. If you are interested in finding out more information about MLRH AAA, or are interested in acquiring the rights to a team please contact the League Commissioner, Steve Seeger, at steve@mlrh.com .     ________________________________________________

The XIHL is a full-contact, elite inline hockey league featuring the best roller hockey players in North America. Games are played in a “pro-style” format in a traditional geographic travel league structure.   (

 

The goal for American Inline Hockey Properties, LLC (AIHP), the parent company of the XIHL, is to create a number of leagues and events all operated at the highest level of professionalism and integrity. The XIHL is the first league formed by AIHP. We expect this to result in a competitive environment for the players, a financially rewarding opportunity for the team operators and the most entertaining and affordable experience for the fans.

Initially, the XIHL will establish a solid and stable foundation by joining together some of the most successful semi-pro roller hockey teams currently in existence with a number of new organizations that have confirmed their ability and willingness to operate at the highest level possible. Expansion will then take place after a thorough review of prospective applications and careful consideration of a prospective applicant’s impact on the rest of the league.

One of the ways AIHP plans to formulate the success of the league is by providing unlimited assistance from the league office to help insure the strength and competitiveness of the individual member teams.

Operating a team in a new league, particularly an elite roller hockey league, can be costly. That’s why the XIHL will be focused on keeping expenses down from a team standpoint and a league standpoint. One of the ways to do this is to keep the initial geographic scope small, allowing for travel between cities within a division at about 4 to 6 hours by ground transportation.
