The Suburban High School Hockey League is taking a stand against inappropriate behavior by student spectators. SHSHL Commissioner Kenny Haas issued a directive on Tuesday that states studentswho behaves inappropriately at an SHSSL game will, without warning, be banned from attending league games for the balance of the season.
Inappropriate behavior includes, but is not limited to, the use of alcohol, intoxication, profanity, ejection and/or discipline from the on-ice officials, altercations in the stands, trash talking opponents on the ice or opponent spectators off-ice.
A number of spectators were removed from last Thursday’s game between Council Rock South and Central Bucks South at Hatfield Ice Arena.
