The Highland Bulldog Hockey Club (HBHC) is a local civic organization dedicated to develop, encourage and coordinate the game of ice hockey for 7th grade (dependent on birth year), 8th grade and high school students living in the Highland School District. This organization was created in 1997.
The HBHC has a board of directors of volunteer parents who live in the Highland School District. There are 10 members of the board consisting of a President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Registrar and 5 general Board Members.
The team consists of young men/women who live in the Highland School District. The HBHC has traditionally had enough interest from the area youth to be able to field two teams, Varsity and Junior Varsity. Games are played at various ice rinks in the metro east. The rink located in Edwardsville is currently designated as the HBHC home ice.
The regular season, including practices and end of the year playoffs, typically runs September through March. At the discretion of the coach, the team may also participate in some combination of spring league, summer conditioning, summer ice sessions, summer league and/or fall warm-up league which extends the season. All players are encouraged to continue their development through camps, leagues and various clinics.
Hockey is a very big commitment, both of time and money. This is an exciting sport and well worth the effort.
