REGISTER NOW FOR FRASER FALL/WINTER HOCKEY CLINIC!
The MSE Adult Hockey Clinic is returning to Fraser! Registration is now open for the 2026-27 Fall/Winter Adult Hockey Clinic coming Friday evenings beginning Dec. 4 at Fraser's Big Boy Arena!
The program will run for 10 weeks, and is specifically tailored for men and women 18 and up with beginner, novice or intermediate skills. It's a great way to learn the game (Hockey 101), or sharpen your skills and get valuable extra ice time (Hockey 202)! Start times and more information are available in the brochures available on our home page and at Big Boy Arena.
Participants in the beginner program will learn the fundamentals of the game, while intermediates will have an opportunity to further develop their skills with the assistance of our experienced and knowledgeable hockey instructors. Each class begins with the 30-minute off-ice session and all participants will have the option of being placed on a team at the conclusion of the Clinic in February.
Best of all, the price for all 10 classes — including ten 1-1/2 hour on-ice sessions, ten 30-minute off-ice sessions and practice jersey — is a serious bargain at just $249. Those joining late will of course receive a prorated discount for any sessions they've missed.
You can register online for the 2026-27 Fall/Winter Adult Hockey Clinic with any major credit card here or download the brochure off our homepage. You can also e-mail us with any questions you have about the program at any time at info@msehockey.com.

Another weekend packed with fun, competitive adult hockey is coming in the Spring!
That would be the Annual MSE Cup Spring Adult Tournament, coming to Fraser's Big Boy Arena Friday through Sunday, March 19-21, 2027. Once again, we're billing it as the "Battle of the Rinks," inviting teams from all five of our fall/winter arenas — Fraser, Mount Clemens, Trenton, Southgate and Farmington Hills — as well as guest teams to compete for the right to hoist a special trophy, the "MSE Cup" as MSE's "best of the best."
Three skill levels are being offered, novice (Bronze), intermediate (Silver) and elite (Gold), and the cost is just $895 for a three-game guarantee plus a championship final game on Sunday for qualifying teams.
In addition to the MSE Cup team trophy and a permanent spot on the MSE Champions page on our website, special championship T-shirts will be awarded to all members of the winning teams. Out-of-town and non-MSE teams are also welcome and easy and convenient online registration with Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express is now available here. Copies of the brochure/registration form are available at Big Boy Arena, or you can download a copy of the tournament brochure off our homepage.
This is sure to once again be a great event — a weekend of fun, competitive hockey, at a great price, with a showcase trophy and big-time bragging rights to the victors. Register now! Any questions about the Tournament, just contact us at info@msehockey.com.
A REMINDER: DRESSING ROOM SECURITY
It's always a good time to review some routine precautions all teams should follow when using the dressing facilities:
- Lock the Room When You Leave It!
That's especially true when the dressing rooms are not visible from the ice surface — but it ALSO applies to arenas where the dressing rooms ARE visible from the ice. During the game, all eyes are focused on the action on the ice, not the dressing room doors. Thieves have been known to enter dressing rooms in full view of the players and spectators — and get away with it. And, remember that arena dressing rooms typically share a shower/lavatory facility with an adjoining dressing room. So, be sure to deny thieves the "back-door" access to your dressing room by securing the shower room door as well. - Don't Carry Large Amounts of Cash!
A full wallet is an open invitation to a thief. Players should carry a driver's license (in case there's a roster check) and enough money to pay for their ice — period. Large ice payments, of course, are best handled by a check or money order, and it's always wise to make any payment BEFORE the game — rather than leave a room full of cash when a team takes the ice. And treat your credit cards the same way you would a large amount of cash — leave them at home. - Don't Force Open the Doors!
If you find yourself unable to enter the dressing room, seek out a rink employee or someone from MSE. Don't try to force the door open! Not only will your team be responsible for the cost of repairing the door (which isn't cheap), a broken door is an inviting opportunity for a thief later on. - Return Your Keys!
We know it's a hassle to leave your car/house keys when picking up a dressing room key — but there's a reason almost all arenas do it. Having extra dressing room keys leave the building is an obvious security breach and an invitation to trouble. Remember to always return your key as you leave the arena.
Following these simple procedures should help to keep the dressing rooms secure and minimize the risk of anyone becoming victimized by a thief.
MSEHOCKEY.COM — 28 YEARS OLD AND STILL SETTING RECORDS!
Now more than a quarter century old and faster and more functional than ever, the Michigan Sports Enterprises website continues to be "the" adult hockey online resource in Metro Detroit. Since it went live in April 1998, msehockey.com has logged more than 50 million total hits, including an all-time record of more than 900,000 in March 2026!
MSE was the first adult hockey program in Michigan to provide its teams and players with online access to scores, standings, schedules, etc., and while the regular maintenance and updates aren't easy or inexpensive, msehockey.com has more than proven its worth to our teams over the years.
Remember, your team can become a part of our website for just $99 a year — that works out to about 27 cents a day and less than $2 a week. For that small expense, we'll link any team site to our "TEAM" page and give any one team sponsor a link to our "SPONSOR" page as well. If your team or your sponsor are interested in this great and inexpensive opportunity to get some added exposure, just drop us an e-mail at info@msehockey.com.
