Under WCCHA rules, each team plays a round-robin schedule within the division that includes two games against each division opponent. The schedule is balanced home vs. away each season, and repeats every two years (so if team A hosts team B in year 1, team B will host team A in year 2).
POINTS: Win = 2 PTS | TIE = 1 PT | LOSS = 0 PTS
Games tied at the end of regulation will proceed to a 5 minute, 4v4 sudden death overtime. If the overtime ends without a goal, the game is officially a tie and scored as such. There are no points awarded for an overtime loss.
Each season, the WCCHA will recognize a regular season Division Champion for each Division.
TOURNAMENT QUALIFICATION: The top 3 teams from each division will automatically qualify for the WCCHA Tournament, regardless of position in the WCCHA KRACH Rankings (tiebreakers may be used to confirm top 3). However, KRACH will be used for seeding at the tournament, not division finish.
DIVISION STANDINGS TIEBREAKERS (in order): head to head record, head to head goal differential, overall goal differential, total goals scored, least goals allowed and coin flip by commissioner.
