Northern Berkshire Youth Hockey is excited to announce that registration is open for the 2024-2025 travel team season. We will offer teams at all levels. 

• Full season 8U (Mite), 10U (Squirt), and 12U (Peewee) with two weekly team practices, and all teams will play in NBYHL’s annual Spring Fling in March.

• This season, the split season 18U (Midget) will focus on skill development. Weekly practice will be run on Sundays, allowing players doing fall sports to participate. Half of the practice will be run by NBYHL coaches and half by Silengo Hockey Performance. 

• Also, this season, goalie registration is FREE (two per team). Email nbyhlwebmaster@gmail.com to receive a waiver code.

Jersey Ordering Link

The Board of Directors would like families to know that we are working to update the league's logo and jersey design. However, this update will take place in the 2025-2026 season.   We will ask all families to purchase the new design, and we are actively working on ways to keep the 2025-2026 jersey cost down. We will keep you informed about the design update process.

We are letting you know this so that if you believe your player can use their current jersey for this season, you will not be purchasing a jersey for one season.   Please don't hesitate to contact any board member with any questions.

This season as an additional fundraiser for Northern Berkshire Black Bears, we are going to use FlipGive, a free team funding app.

We earn cash back on every purchase we make all year long! All you have to do is shop anytime with the brands you already love, like Home Depot, Under Armour, Walmart, Mobil, Dick's Sporting Goods, and multiple restaurants.  The app includes many ice hockey-specific providers including Pure Hockey and Hockey Monkey.

Join our team now and you’ll get a $5 bonus the first time you shop:

Since 1969 Northern Berkshire Youth Hockey (NBYHL) has been a league that has promoted and developed the game of hockey among the youth of Northern Berkshire County, Massachusetts, and Southern Vermont.  Our league has travel teams (Black Bears) for boys and girls from age 6 through high school.  We also boast a learn to skate and learn to play program for ages 4-10. 

The purpose of the league is to provide the best available instruction in order to teach the game of hockey, stress the importance of physical fitness, and provide the core values of USA Hockey: sportsmanship; respect for the individual; integrity; pursuit of excellence as an individual, team, and organization; enjoyment; loyalty; and teamwork.
