SPHL Player Development

Since its inception in 2004, over 400 Southern Professional Hockey League players have been called up during the season to the ECHL, CHL or other 'AA' level (or higher) league, combining for nearly 7,500 games played.  Last season, 54 different players earned the opportunity to advance to the ECHL, where they played almost 700 games.

Now entering its 13th season of play, the SPHL has firmly established itself as one of the top professional hockey leagues in North America.
