Burlington Beer League is back, baby! Our summer season of CBL will be kicking off on April 19th and for the first time we will be running with two divisions! Games for both divisions are on Sunday evenings at WAVE. Divisions are split between “House” and “Select”. Game times for both divisions will rotate through the same 4 hours so there’s no one division with better times or anything like that.

“House League”, is for players who are likely to score in the 50s and 60s on our CBL Player Rating Quiz. “Select” will be better suited for those who score in the 70s. We will have all players register into one pool, then split down the middle based on skill level, with the higher skilled players placed in Select. Adjustments might be made after the first few games of the season. Players may be moved between divisions, and players may be moved between teams to ensure we’ve done our best to make the divisions appropriate, and the teams as even as can be reasonably expected.

Please note that just because we have a “higher division” now, doesn’t mean that you can be crazy-lights-out-wicked-good at hockey and still fit in, okay? Someday we’ll get a “Rep” division or something like that, but until then we’re still a league for people who aren’t sad that they didn’t make the Olympic team ‘cause they were “so close”. If you’ve played at a high level or you’re scoring well into the 80s on the CBL Player Rating Quiz you’re not gonna be a good fit and you’re probably gonna be asked to find a new league. We want mostly the same people we’ve had playing with us all along, we’re just gonna split you up into two different groups. Cool? Register below!
