10U to 18U Youth Hockey

The Kenosha Komets will be fielding tournament teams for 10U through 18U youth hockey programs for the 2025 Spring season. Each team will participate in two tournaments that are included as a part of their registration fees. Any additional tournament play is at the discretion and cost of each individual team.

All Komets players must be currently registered with USA Hockey before they will be able to register for Komets Spring Hockey. Each player must have their own, unique USA Hockey confirmation number and will need their current USA Hockey number to proceed with registration.

If you do not have a USA Hockey number, please first register with USA Hockey and return to registration to signup for our Spring Season.

To obtain a USA Hockey number:

• Step 1: Click the link below to register your player(s) with USA Hockey.
• Step 2: Print and save the confirmation code(s).
• Step 3: Return to this registration and proceed. Enter the USA Hockey Confirmation number that you printed in Step 2.

The Spring season will run from the week of April 7 through May 31. Dates may change based on the tournaments selected by each team.

Players must have participated in a full-ice travel or house program for the 2024 - 2025 season OR participated in Komets Development Program and have received approval from our Komets Hockey Director, Bob Leitza.  

Teams are structured by age groups as determined by the USA Hockey 2025 - 2026 birth years as well as each player's individual performance at tryouts.

The registration fees at each level will include two tournaments, one one-hour practice each week, and practice jerseys for our new players. As much as we try to keep our fees low, unfortunately tournament fees have dramatically increased recently with some as high as $1,600 (or more!) for each team's entry.

You may pay all fees up front or may choose an installment plan with the payment being due on the 9th of the month.

All 14U players playing Spring MUST attend the checking clinic for the spring tryouts.

ALL 14U players are required to complete a checking clinic BEFORE they can participate in any 14U practices or games. We hold a checking clinic in the Spring and again in the Fall. Any 14U player may participate in our upcoming checking clinic, even if they have completed our clinic in the past.  

Our Spring Checking Clinic is scheduled for April 7 at 8:10 pm the Kenosha Ice Arena.

• Evaluations are held for each age bracket
• While it is not mandatory to attend both tryout sessions, it is to the players best interest to do so
• Players not selected for a team will receive a full refund
• There is no guarantee of placement on a specific team
• If a player is assigned to a team, but they choose not to join that team, there will be no refunds issued

The practice schedule will begin the week of April 14 and will run for approximately 8 weeks. Players are expected to participate in the one hour long practice for their team each week.

Tournament Locations: Locations of the tournaments will be determined by the individual team.

Jerseys: Returning players will wear their Fall practice jerseys for the Spring session. Anyone new to the organization will receive a set of practice jerseys with their registration. 

Additional Costs: Teams may decide to do player swag bags or other tournament activities. If they choose to do so, those costs are split between the families.

Boundaries: The Kenosha Komets can accept players from the following areas:

• ILLINOIS: ANY resident from ANY community in Illinois.
• WISCONSIN: ANY resident of Kenosha, Racine or Walworth Counties.
