With overtime finishes, one-goal games and multiple weekend sweeps across the federation, the September 19-20 slate added another competitive chapter to the early stages of the AGHF season. Teams now turn their attention toward the next round of league action as the season continues to build momentum.
There is no shortage of hockey on the AGHF schedule this weekend!
From 10U through 19U, teams are hitting the ice across the region for a packed two days of regular-season action. With several teams playing multiple games, divisional matchups across the board and plenty of early-season hockey still to be played, Saturday and Sunday are going to be busy ones.

A Weekend of Tight Battles
From overtime drama to one-goal finishes, the September 12-13 slate delivered competitive hockey throughout the AGHF. With several divisions featuring crossover matchups and limited schedules, every opportunity to take the ice provided another early-season test as teams continue to find their footing.
The AGHF season rolls on with more action ahead as teams across the Elite, Diamond and Platinum tiers look to build on their early-season performances.
The first few weeks of a hockey season are all about getting back into the rhythm. This weekend, the AGHF is officially hitting its stride.
From 10U through 19U, Saturday and Sunday bring a packed slate of regular-season action across the league, with teams settling into the new season, divisional matchups picking up and plenty of hockey on tap from the first puck drop Saturday morning through Sunday evening.
And right in the middle of it all, the spotlight is officially turning on.
The first AGHF Game of the Month of the 2026-27 season hits the ice Saturday night as the NJ Bandits and Princeton Tiger Lilies meet in a 19U Elite showdown at 6:25 p.m. at Pro Skate Olympic.
Saturday Night Belongs to 19U Elite
We introduced Game of the Month to put some of the AGHF’s can’t-miss matchups center stage. Now, it’s time to play the first one.
The Bandits and PTL get the honors Saturday night, bringing 19U Elite into the spotlight at Pro Skate.
And there’s a little more to this one than a single game.
Saturday marks the beginning of a two-game weekend between the Bandits and Tiger Lilies, who will meet again Sunday at 1:40 p.m., also at Pro Skate Olympic. That means there’s very little time to regroup between puck drops — and plenty of opportunity for Saturday night to set the tone for Round Two.
First, though, all eyes are on 6:25 p.m. Saturday.
The Game of the Month series will continue throughout the 2026-27 season, with another September matchup still to be selected during the upcoming Ice Breaker Showcase. But the road starts here.
Saturday Starts Early — And Stays Busy
There’s plenty of hockey to watch before the Game of the Month takes center stage.
Saturday begins at 8:00 a.m. with the New York Islanders and Stateline Hawks facing off at 10U Diamond. The Islanders have a busy day ahead across several divisions, including Diamond matchups with the CT Ice Cats at 12U and 14U.
Pro Skate has a full afternoon of its own. Union Thunder and Princeton Tiger Lilies meet at three different levels, beginning with 10U Platinum at 12:50 p.m., followed by 12U Platinum at 3:05 p.m. and 14U Diamond at 4:45 p.m.
The 14U divisions will also be busy across the region. The North Jersey Avalanche and Saugerties Fillies meet twice at 14U Elite, while the Philadelphia Jr. Flyers and Team Long Island have a pair of 14U Elite games of their own.
As the day moves into the evening, the older divisions take over. The Reston Raiders and Lehigh Valley Phantoms meet at 5:00 p.m. in 19U Diamond action, followed shortly after by the New York Islanders and Skylands Lady Kings.
Then comes the one we’ve circled.
6:25 p.m. NJ Bandits vs. Princeton Tiger Lilies. 19U Elite. Game of the Month.
Right Back at It Sunday
There won’t be much time to slow down.
Sunday opens with Philadelphia Jr. Flyers and Snider Hockey at 10U Platinum before another full day of games gets underway.
The Reston Raiders and Lehigh Valley Phantoms are back for another 19U Diamond matchup at 9:15 a.m., while the Stateline Hawks and New Jersey Jets meet twice at 14U Platinum.
The Jr. Flyers will be busy throughout Sunday as well. Their schedule includes matchups at 12U Diamond and 14U Diamond, plus two 16U Elite games against MYHA.
And then it’s time for Round Two.
Less than 24 hours after Saturday night’s Game of the Month, the NJ Bandits and Princeton Tiger Lilies meet again at 1:40 p.m. Sunday at Pro Skate Olympic. Whatever Saturday brings, both teams will have an immediate opportunity to answer back.
Later in the afternoon, South Jersey Monarchs and Union Thunder meet at 19U Platinum, while Union Thunder and Lehigh Valley Phantoms close out another busy weekend of 19U Diamond action.
The Spotlight Is On
There are a lot of games to keep an eye on this weekend — and that’s exactly how we like it.
The season is young. Teams are finding their footing. Divisions are starting to take shape. And every weekend brings another opportunity to make some noise.

September Starts at 19U Elite
The 19U Elite division gets the first crack at Game of the Month honors when the Bandits and PTL meet at Pro Skate.
With two programs ready to make their mark early in the season, there’s no waiting around for the stakes to build. September hockey is here, points are already on the line and an early-season statement is up for grabs.
And September isn’t stopping there.
The AGHF will select a second September Game of the Month during the Ice Breaker Showcase, with the featured matchup to be announced. With teams from across the league coming together for one of the early highlights of the season, we’ll be keeping an eye on the schedule for a matchup worthy of the spotlight.
Big Matchups All Season Long
September is just the beginning.
In October, the spotlight returns to Pro Skate when JR Flyers Elite takes on PTL in 16U Elite action on October 18. A second October feature will bring the action to the 19U Diamond division, where the Yale Jr. Bulldogs face the NY Islanders.
The November Freeze Showcase takes center stage the following month, with November’s featured Game of the Month matchup to be announced from the showcase.
December brings us back to 19U Elite as Lehigh Valley and the NJ Bandits go head-to-head before the calendar flips to 2027.
Then there’s one last stop before playoff season.
January’s Game of the Month heads to the 12U Diamond division, where the South Jersey Monarchs take on the NY Islanders in the final featured matchup before the chase for an AGHF championship begins.
Circle the Dates
From 12U Diamond to 19U Elite, Game of the Month will give different divisions and teams across the AGHF their chance in the spotlight throughout the season.
