The PGHL strengthens the player development model by creating a competitive environment where clubs can develop, compete, and progress within the PGHL ecosystem while upholding the highest standards of excellence and long-term sustainability.

 

This application is open to all sanctioned AHAI/USAH programs looking to place teams in high-level competition and are encouraged to apply. Regardless of affiliation, all clubs meeting the PGHL's criteria for competition and development will be considered.

 

To ensure an efficient and thorough selection process, applications will be reviewed with acceptances delivered accordingly, while maintaining a focus on competitive integrity. After submission, each application will be evaluated by our oversight committee. If additional information or clarification is required, clubs will be contacted for a review before a final decision is made.
