WHo is the SIHA?

Patrick Favalo is the Owner of the Inline Hockey Association, LLC and as Chief Operating Officer of the SIHA, he makes all of decisions on the future of the league. Pat is also the head referee and enforces all of the league's policies. His 15+ years organizing inline hockey in CNY has helped shape the league to what it is today.

Colin Massulik, League Administrator, does work such as obtaining league sponsors and keeping the rules up to date. He is also a referee and has been known to play once in a while. His private business, OnSite Design, maintains the league's website and all of the graphic design. Colin has been with the SIHA since its inception in 2005 and has been the webmaster for the website in a previous inline hockey league in located Central New York.

Riki Brundage is our sponsor liason and event coordinator. Riki will be bringing us new sponsors and events to make your experience a better one.

On the registration application, there is a section that asks if you already have a team. If you check “no”, we will put you in contact with a captain that needs players to complete their team.

This is an Indoor Surface, we recommend that you check out our Wheel Chart.

Yes, all you need to do is fill out the Team Registration form and list all of the players on the Team. To be eligible for the 10% registration discount, your team must consist of 8 skaters and 1 goaltender. If you want to bring your own sponsor and jerseys, the sponsor is required to pay a mandatory $200.00 advertising fee.
