2022 NAPHL Showcase Events (Blaine, MN)

I have a staffing agreement with FloHockey (fka HockeyTV) to provide PxP announcers for NAPHL events this Fall.  Most games will be at the Super Rink in Blaine, with overflow at Fogerty and possibly other arenas.  Pay rate is $45-50 per game, each slot runs two hours inclusive of resurfacing (at halftime and between games).  All equipment is provided by FloHockey; you need only to show up and announce the game.  Schedule and rosters can be found here –> NAPHL Game Center when available.

Currently scheduling for the NAPHL Fall Showcase (September 15-18) held in conjunction with the season-opening NAHL Showcase featuring all teams in the North American Hockey League.  Estimated needs are to cover nearly 200 games with announcers.  I will spread assignments so that no one will be stuck in the back rinks the entire event.  With the Junior games on Rinks 1-4 there are more Midget-age games in back than up front.

Interested announcers can request:

  • AM (approx. 8 am to 3 pm),
  • PM (approx. 3 pm to 10 pm), or
  • ALL DAY (roughly 8 am to 10 pm)

for each day they wish to work.
