KDHL Timekeeping 2021 - 2022

To ensure all teams benefit equally, every KDHL game will have an assigned timekeeper to run the time clock, and record game statistics. Each regular season game has a timekeeper assigned. A locker in the referee's room contains the game binder and first aid kit.  The combination is written in a secret location (on the locker end).  Playoff games will be assigned once match-ups are known.  Should the assigned player fail to keep the commitment, they are required to pay a $20.00 fine to the league.

Timekeeper Responsibilities

Typically there is an instruction card near the clock remote unit.  If you aren't familiar with the functions start waving your arms.  There are lots of guys on the ice that can get you started.  99% of the time penalties are not put up on the clock.  Just yell through the class and let the sinner know what time they are free. (drop of the puck minus 3 minutes)

Find a replacement if you are unable to make your assigned timekeeping date.  

Keep the game clock current with;

• The game time remaining as directed by the referee in charge. Periods are 22 minutes running time unless instructed otherwise by the referee in charge.

• Current score on the score clock

  • Score sheet updated with the clock time, period, sweater numbers of scorer and players assisting as provided by the referee

• Penalty time remaining (all penalties, unless directed by the referee, are 3 minutes running time. If you are unable to work the penalty clock ensure the penalized play knows when they are "free".)

  • Score sheet updated with the clock time, period, sweater numbers and type of penalty

• Provide Pat Moran (Shoeless Joe team) with the completed time sheet.  If he isn't playing leave the sheet in the binder, and return it and the first aid kit to the locker.
