2027 Travel Season
The Clippers are hitting the road. Here's where we're going, what we're chasing, and how your player can be part of it.
Where we're playing in 2027
Eight tournaments across five states — plus local jamborees throughout the season. We travel to compete against the best programs in the country and bring that experience back to Long Island.
Plus additional local jamborees throughout the season.
Four tournaments. One champion.
The Rivals Series is an 'A' Level circuit across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Compete in all four tournaments and the team with the best standings across the series is crowned champion. The Long Island Clippers would be the first New York team to participate in the full series — the highest level of youth ball hockey competition available.
For these four tournaments, you must be rostered on the LI Clippers and no other team. This ensures our roster is locked and competitive for the series standings.
Compete with the Clippers — and beyond
Selected players join the Clippers for the travel season and the Rivals Series. But playing for us doesn't lock you in everywhere — Clippers players are also free to play for other teams at non-Rivals tournaments. We want to field the best kids for the Rivals Series and give them every opportunity to grow, compete, and represent Long Island on the biggest stage in youth ball hockey.
