Central Coast In-House League (CCIHL) is facilitated by Erina Ice Arena for local players. 

We run two annual in-house league competitions, with the winter season running April-September, and summer October-March.

The upcoming  2025 CCIHL Summer League will be divided into 2 leagues to accommodate players of all levels.
Advanced League, open to players who are capable of playing in a level equivalent to IHNSW Divison 2  through to AIHL level.
Recreational League, open to players who have confidently participated in Friday Beginner Drop-In through to a level equivalent to IHNSW Division 3.
 
Up to 10 teams across both leagues will be competing in this year’s Summer season with the Advanced League taking place on Thursdays from 7:45pm and the Recreational League taking place on Mondays from 7:00pm.
 
Registrations are now open for both leagues. There are strict closing dates for each league as teams are drafted from the number of registrations received by the closing date.
