JCNSP Families.

In order to facilitate a safe playing atmosphere, JCNSP Hockey will be using the following protocols for all warm-up and tryout ice times. Please note that some of these points may differ from our JCNSP Covid Guidelines for League Games and Practices. All points listed are subject to change based on MN Hockey, State, and Local guidelines.
