The Eastern Hockey Federation, affectionately known as simply “THE FED”, has been the preeminent Youth Hockey League in the North East since its inception in 2004, having teams and associations consistently ranked in the Top 5 Nationally. Originally established by the Bay State Breakers, Boston Jr Eagles, Boston Jr. Terriers, Bridgewater Bandits, Middlesex Islanders, Minuteman Flames, Providence Capitals, South Shore Kings, and Top Gun, the league has grown to include 21 associations with 6000 players involved annually. Many of the top NHL and College Hockey players got their start with the “FED”.
