Sportsmanship is everyone's responsibility.  All associated parties play a critical role in upholding a high standard of conduct: players, coaches, officials, administrators, and spectators.  The result is a supportive culture for our players, coaches, and officials; an enjoyable environment for our fans and families; and a positive image for our schools, our teams, and our league.

Our playoffs are our marquee event, where sportsmanship cannot be discarded just because the stakes are high on the ice.  Players and coaches must display the important values of respect and discipline, regardless of the outcome of the games.  The applicable rulebooks will be enforced for players and team personnel who step outside of those boundaries.

Fans should cheer for their team and support all participants in a positive manner.  We are living in a time when our young adults need, more than ever, to play in an environment in which they can enjoy the game they love.  Spectators who interfere with the game or exhibit behaviors that are detrimental to the spirit and values of intercollegiate sports shall be removed from the premises without warning and without refund.

Ample vehicle parking is available in the lot adjacent to the arena and is free to the public.  There is an additional lot across the street, to the south of the main lot that is accessed by turning right shortly after passing the main parking lot entrance on the left.  ADA parking is available along the front of the arena, facing the building to the left of the main entrance.

Team buses/vans are encouraged to stay on the campus road (as opposed to turning into the arena parking lot) and unload on that road near the southwest corner of the facility.

There is an admission fee charged for anyone entering the arena during the CHMA event to help offset the costs to the teams.
     ADULTS = $5
     STUDENTS = $2 (with student ID)
     CHILDREN = $2 (18 and under)

All seating inside the playing area is General Admission.  Fans of each team -- including students -- are asked to sit in the seating areas across from their team's bench.  Groups of fans sitting in any other location will be redirected to the appropriate seating area.

A professional photographer will be present throughout most of the weekend, including the CHMA championship game on Sunday.  Photos and photo packages from the event can be purchased from the photographer following the event.  Information on purchasing photos will be provided at the event.

No photos from the event shall be sold nor distributed for commercial use without the express written consent of the CHMA.  Media members taking photographs shall do so only for editorial and publishing purposes.

Only the official photographer will be permitted in the scorer's/penalty box area during the games, and only approved photographers will be permitted to be in areas outside of the general seating sections.  Photographers wishing to gain approval must do so prior to the start of any game, which shall be limited to valid media outlets and confirmed team photographers.  There shall be a limited and inflexible restriction on photographers who are permitted on the ice for the championship presentation.

Only team/game personnel, league officials, and approved photographers are permitted on the ice at any time throughout the post-season, including the on-ice celebration following the championship game.  The winning team will be asked to clear the ice immediately if spectators or other unauthorized individuals enter the ice surface during this time, and any unauthorized person entering the ice surface will be removed from the premises immediately.
