I’ve been working with StinkySocks Hockey on potentially bringing their No Commitment Hockey format to New Jersey, and I’m trying to get a better idea of how much interest there is from players around New Brunswick and the rest of Middlesex County.
For anyone unfamiliar with StinkySocks, the format is organized adult hockey where you register game-by-game instead of committing to a team and paying for an entire season. They handle the rosters, skill balancing and goalie coverage, so you can just sign up for the games that work for you.
We now have some realistic rink possibilities in the Old Bridge / East Brunswick area, so this could be a good fit for players around New Brunswick, Piscataway, Edison, North Brunswick, South Brunswick and the surrounding area.
Before StinkySocks commits financially to recurring ice, though, we need a better sense of how many people would actually participate.
I put together a short interest form asking which rink areas and start times you’d realistically play, how often you’d attend and what you’d be comfortable paying per game:

This isn’t registration for a specific game and nobody is being charged anything. The goal is just to figure out whether there’s enough dependable demand to make a regular Central Jersey game work.
Both skaters and goalies are encouraged to fill it out.
If you already completed the previous North Jersey version of the form, you don’t need to do it again. Your response is already included.
If you play adult hockey anywhere around New Brunswick or Middlesex County, I’d really appreciate you filling it out and sharing it with anyone else who might be interested.
