OCHC 10U-18U
2026-27 OCHC Registration
The Oneida County Hockey Club (OCHC) is a competitive hockey program with teams at the 10U, 12U, 14U and midget levels. New Hartford Youth Hockey and Whitestown Youth Hockey have taken unprecedented steps in working together for the benefit of youth hockey in our area. As a combined program we have the ability to play at the Tier II (register under New Hartford Youth Hockey) or Tier III (register under Whitestown Youth Hockey) level. This flexibility allows us to choose the level of play based on the talent of the kids at each level.
Our goal - to provide competitive and affordable hockey for players in our area without having to join a Tier I hockey association.
Please note that we have updated our registration structure for the 2026-2027 season. To better serve our athletes and ensure transparency regarding ice time, we have established three distinct registration tiers for the year(Travel Full Season, House Full Season, 16U Wrap Season):
