Cool Beer League Hockey Blogs & Sites

1. BLPA

BLPA, or the Beer League Player Association, is an awesome community of beer league hockey players that you should be a part of.

They have a FaceBook Group with more than 20,000 members.

As a part of the BLPA FaceBook Group, you’ll be able to get your daily dose of hockey humor, news, and banter.

There’s a decent chance you’ll know some other hockey-playing friends that are in the group.

Their primary website lists resources including beer league blogs, podcasts, tournaments and shows.

And the BLPA also has some cool branded swag.

If you are looking for some killer deals on hockey tape, this is the place to shop.

3. CrossIce Hockey

CrossIce Hockey is another nice beer-league-related website dedicated to the more politically correct term of ‘recreational’ hockey.

As their website states: “Our goal is to provide both adult hockey players and youth hockey players—including coaches and refs—with helpful tips and information on everything from fitness and nutrition, to pre-game, in-game, and post-game strategies.

Whether you’re a goalie or a skater (or the parent of one),CrossIceHockey.com provides a wealth of useful information for hockey players of all ages.”

4. Hockey Finder

Hockey Finder is a website based in hockey-hungry Minnesota. Their free platform is a great resource for finding:

Beer Hockey Leagues
Drop-In Hockey Games
Hockey Tournaments

Hockey Finder allows you to easily find drop-in hockey sessions, plus adult beer leagues, hockey clinics, and tournaments.

It has a really cool feature in that you can click on your state on the map graphic page and instantly find a ton of resources. It’s important to mention that their website is a work in progress so some states are more built-out than others at this point but it’s still a great platform and resource.

5. Beer League Talk

The FaceBook page covers beer league hockey and also everything going on in the world of ice hockey.

Founder David Portnoy has described the website’s content as “sports/smut.” The site contains a mixture of podcasts, blogs, and video series featuring company staff in what has been described as “a sort of online reality show”. It’s a really cool site.

Barstool is responsible for producing the hockey podcast beauty: Spittin’ Chiclets.

My Hockey Rankings, aka MYHockey, is a really large resource site that ranks hockey teams in divisions including Squirt, Peewee, Bantam, Midgets, High School, Juniors, College, and Girls Leagues.

It has a ton of resources on everything related to youth hockey. It’s not beer league hockey, but lots of beer league dads have youth players.

I have an entire page dedicated to this website here: My Hockey Rankings.

10. HockeyBuzz

HockeyBuzz is the hockey blog of the anonymous and ever-mysterious person named Eklund.

“Eklund is an anonymous pseudonym. He exploded onto the hockey scene during the NHL lockout when he created a blog at www.hockeyrumors.blogspot.com which was considered one of the prime sources for insider news and rumors regarding the ongoing labor negotiations.”

“He has since appeared on dozens of radio and TV shows in cities across North America including the Jim Rome Show, Fan590 in Toronto, Team1200 in Ottawa, Team900 in Montreal, and Fan960 in Calgary.”

It provides hockey fans with news, rumors, trade analysis, and hockey lifestyle stories. It covers both the NHL and world junior leagues.

You can stream these high-level games and purchase some beautiful merch too.
