BUCKEYE CUP 2020

The Buckeye Cup is the State Tournament for USA Hockey high school teams in Ohio.  Congratulations to the Northeast Storm Varsity team for qualifying for the tournament held in Cleveland this year.  The team had a record of 1 win and 2 losses in their pool play, Finishing 12th in the state in the final rankings!  Great effort all year - you've made the organization proud!

The GCHSCHL is now the OSHL!

Over the summer of 2017 our league has undergone a name change.  The Greater Columbus High School Club Hockey League is now called the Ohio Scholastic Hockey League.  The change was made for various reasons, including wanting the ability to recognize the continued importance of education as well as recognizing the fact that we have teams in the league outside of the Columbus area.

The 2017-2018 Parking Pass for the Fairgrounds is available in the "Forms and Links" section of the website.
