How mileage is figured.Whatever league you’re headed TO is

responsible for your travel (mileage).

Whatever league you work last (before heading home) is responsible for your travel home.

Any game within 50 miles (100 miles round trip) is considered a LOCAL game and does not pay mileage.Examples

Norwalk house to DSM rink (13 miles)

Requesting a mileage exception

If you feel that a trip deserves mileage because you are picking up a non-monthly mileage paying league game on your way back from a USHL/NAHL/SPHL game you may request an exception.

All exceptions must be requested prior to submitting mileage.

Request must be sent to director of that league. Either Chris or Johnathan Chris: NAHL Johnathan: USHL/SPHL Not SCOTT ZELKIN or MARK FAUCETTE!

Requesting a mileage exception

Example: Live in DSM Skate in Fargo Friday and Saturday Skate in Rochester on Sunday Return home Sunday after your Rochester game.

This trip would qualify for a mileage exception.

We don’t expect you to drive from Fargo to Rochester to DSM without mileage.

This would be a USHL exception request since you’re asking the USHL to pay your mileage.

You would email Johnathan and ask for an exception.
