MN Hockey District 15
District 15 is the regional organization that helps run youth hockey in our area. Little Falls Youth Hockey is part of this district, along with several other communities within the state. District 15 is part of Minnesota Hockey, which is the state’s main hockey organization, and Minnesota Hockey is an affiliate of USA Hockey, which oversees youth hockey across the country.
So what does this mean for you and your player?
Think of District 15 as the middle layer between our local association (Little Falls) and the bigger state and national hockey organizations. It helps ensure your child gets a consistent, competitive, and safe hockey experience — and that our local teams are connected to a broader community of youth hockey players.

Game Schedules & Leagues: We play both in league and out of league games during the season. In-league games (or in district) are played against the other associations in D15. Out of district games are not part of our district and those games do not count towards our rankings, playoffs, etc.
