The latest league season for the South Jersey Bubble Hockey League (SJBHL) kicks off on Wednesday, August 31, 2011, in Burlington, NJ. Here's what ya need to know: 1) The league will run on Wednesday and Thursday nights from the end of August to the beginning of December; 2) League nights will be approximately 2-3x/month - a schedule will come out shortly; 3) The league is always open to new members and there is never a cost to play in the league; 4) Game play usually runs from about 7:30pm-9:30pm, and is usually singles (though we continue to experiment with some doubles play as well); 5) The league uses 4 (that's right, 4!!!) Super Chexx tables, all in great condition; 6) The league will have a "flighted" schedule for the first time ever this season - players of similar caliber of talent/experience will play more games against each other that the rest of the league, which should really tighten up the W/L records; 7) Trophies will be given out for A, B, and C flight winners - the vaunted SJBHL Crystal Cups!!! For more info, check out this link to the league website: www.njbubblehockey.org/or respond to this post, or contact JG at: njbubblehockey@verizon.netHope to see you in NJ this season!!! We start play August 31!!! JG |

I forgot to add that there is no requirement to make every league night - you can play in as many or as few of the league nights that you want. Basically you can show up on any league night, whenever you want, and play some bubble hockey! The only caveat - you must make at least 3 of the league nights to qualify for the season-ending playoff tournament. There will be either 8 or 9 league nights, so hopefully a whole bunch of players will qualify this time around.
Let the games begin this Wednesday August 31!!!

Week #6 of the South Jersey Bubble Hockey League was held this past Saturday 11/5/11. Jimmy went a remarkable 11-1, marred only by an O/T loss to me on the last game of the night. What a job by Jimmy! Larry also had a remarkable night, finishing tied for the 2nd best record on the night with a sterling 8-4 mark - holy cow, Larry's bubble game has improved this season! It just goes to show you - if you keep coming out, you will get better and better and better...yes, that was Bill Brooks of all people getting tips from Larry on how to hit the right d-man slapshot! Unbelievable!!! Here are links to the www.njbubblehockey.org website with the article from week #5 and #6 game play, and our league's playoff Power Rankings: www.njbubblehockey.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=114:sjbhl-week-5-and-6-112-and-115-2011&catid=1:latest-news&Itemid=2www.njbubblehockey.org/The next league bubble nights will be the next 2 Wednesdays as we wind down toward the playoffs - this week 11/9 at 7:30pm, and next week 11/16 also a 7:30pm start time. As always, everyone is welcome to come out to play on a league night - it was good to see Glenn Curtis and John D make their first appearances of the season in week #6! Maybe some more of you will come out this week - several league players are making the trek to Tonowanda, NY, for the huge Molson/ICE bubble hockey tournament 11/12 and 11/13, and we could use a tuneup! Check back here at chexxfan.com, or go to www.njbubblehockey.org to find out how we do on the big stage. JG |

Here also are links to the www.njbubblehockey.org website articles that have the South Jersey Bubble Hockey League 2011 Summer-Fall Final Power Rankings in order, and the article from the last week of the regular season 11/30/11: www.njbubblehockey.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=113:sjbhl-power-rankings-summerfall-2011&catid=3:newsflash www.njbubblehockey.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=116:2011-summer-fall-regular-season-ended-113011&catid=1:latest-news&Itemid=2 The SJBHL Playoffs are this coming Wednesday, December 7th, 7:30pm faceoff. 8 players qualified for playoffs, in seeding order: 1) John 2) Jimmy 3) Brian 4) Scott 5) Larry 6) Bill 7) Stephen 8) Monkey If Monkey can't make it, either Lib or Joe could fill in as the 8 seed. The format = best of 3 series in round #1, with series winners advancing to the semi-finals and a 5 game series. Winners in the semis will meet in a best of 5 Fianls for the 1st place Cup. Losers along the way will drop down into different flights to battle for the 2nd and 3rd place Cups. While in the Winner's Flight, players play a "home and home" with an opponent and get to pick their tables to play on - in the Loser's flight, lower seeds get to pick table and side in all games. Hopefully all 8 qualifiers can make it out on 12/7 - I'll update everyone later next week on how the playoffs turned out. And don't forget -the 2012 Winter-Spring bubble hockey league season will start up in New Jersey around the end of January 2012. There is already a good possibility we'll see league longtimers Jimmy B and John Power make some appearances to join the action under the bubbles - maybe some more of you will make the trek to southern NJ to join the fun! Hope so! CHEERS! John |
