We are excited to begin another season of WNYRHL action!  As always, we have a fantastic season planned with a ton of awards and prizes!  Once schedules have been released, we will post them on our schedule page!  Please be patient, we are wrapping up our winter session and finalizing our registrations!  Please remember, we do our best to gauge the skill levels of each team the first couple of weeks!  Once we are comfortable, everyone is placed in the appropriate divisions for the remainder of the season!  We do our absolute best to make fair match ups for the first few weeks but with so many teams we are not familiar with, it is a challenge so please work with us!  Once the divisions are finalized you will have competitive games each week!

Here is a checklist of what to expect at week 1 :
