Westland Heroes of Hockey League
About the Westland Heroes of Hockey League
The league was formed to provide a structure for competitive hockey for adult players over 50 years of age representing communities in the greater Detroit area. The W.H.H.L. promotes the development of hockey friendships in an atmosphere of good sportsmanship, fun and some exercise, depending upon how hard you want to skate. We believe that hockey can build friendships through the discipline, sportsmanship and competition of games. We believe that respect for teammates and opponents are essential to your success in our league. Players that believe in these values are welcome to join our league.
