QCHA Travel teams, known as the Ice Eagles, play at the highest competitive level available in the Quad Cities. The QCHA fields travel teams at the Bantam (14U), PeeWee (12U), and Squirt (10U) levels. We also have a high school program for the Blues and the Lady Blues.
Travel teams have two team practices per week and then a skills practice one time per week with our DHSD. These teams compete in the Northern Illinois Hockey League (NIHL) seeding, regular season and playoff rounds as well as the Midwest Hockey League (MWL/MWGL). Traveling to games and tournaments around the neighboring four state region. QCHA travel teams also have the opportunity to host teams from other communities at their home rink. Evaluation tryouts for the team are held annually in the late summer.
