Canadian Sport School Hockey League

The Canadian Sport School Hockey League (CSSHL) is a minor hockey and Hockey Canada sanctioned league based in Western Canada and the United States.
The CSSHL was founded in 2009 with five "Sport Schools" based in Alberta and British Columbia. The CSSHL was specifically designed to enable like-minded student athletes an increased level of competition and exposure.
