Question 10

What is the Call-Up List and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

The Call-Up List is for players who want to get on the ice but are not committing to a full team. When a team is short players for a game, we reach out to players on the Call-Up List to fill in. You are not on a set roster and there is no guaranteed number of games. You show up when called, play, and have fun. It is a great option if you are playing another sport this spring, have a busy schedule, or just want to get on the ice when it works for you. There is no cost to join the regular Call-Up List.

Question 11

What is the Priority Call-Up and how is it different?

Accepted Answer

The Priority Call-Up is a paid option at $49 that moves your name to the top of the list. When a team needs a fill-in player, Priority Call-Up athletes are contacted first before anyone on the regular list. If getting as much ice time as possible matters to you and you do not want to wait, this is the option to go with. Your $49 secures your spot at the front of the line for the entire spring season.
