When + Where We Play — Important Season Information
LUG plays games Sunday - Thursday nights and Sunday afternoons. Some marquee games including Rivalry Nights, Winter Classics and the All Star Game may take place Friday or Saturday nights. Game days and times vary from week to week.
LUG uses a variety of arenas in each market each week. We book the best ice available whenever possible. Some games may take place within approximately a 30-minute drive and/or 25-mile radius of your campus. Some exceptions apply.
We do not play on key dates in the academic calendar such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, Final Exams, December Break, Reading Week, Spring Break, the Super Bowl, St. Patrick's Day or other statutory holidays. We do play on Sunday evenings returning from scheduled vacations and breaks.
Every effort will be made to create a consistent schedule. Some games, times or facilities may fall outside the advertised information to manage emergencies, cancellations, changes in league size or other situations where schedule flexibility is required.
Team + Division Details
Team division placement may be adjusted after registration and during realignment. Not every city offers all six divisions. Where there are not enough teams to offer separate divisions, division's may be combined and then redrawn after realignment. If registration numbers allow, Open Divisions may be split by skill level. Divisions may also be merged where appropriate to ensure sufficient opponent variety throughout the season while maintaining competitive balance.
Athletic players looking for higher-level, competitive hockey.
Competitive players looking for balanced, competitive games.
Recreational players who still want to compete.
Newer players, ODR legends and players looking for a more recreational game.
Recreational women's division.
Competitive women's division.
