PLYMOUTH, Mich. - USA Hockey's National Team Development Program, in conjunction with the USHL, has announced its 2023-24 USHL regular season schedule. The campaign kicks off for Team USA on September 23-24 as the U18s head to Pennsylvania for the USHL Fall Classic.
Team USA will play a standard 62-game schedule and the USHL will return to full-league, cross-conference play, meaning that the NTDP will compete against the Western Conference's Force, Stars, Storm, Black Hawks, Musketeers and Buccaneers.
Team USA's full USHL schedule can be found in the table below.

SCHEDULE HIGHLIGHTS
FAMILY-FUN PROMOS
Team USA will release its full promotional schedule later this summer, but we'll clue you in on a few fun ones that are already set! Join us on November 17-18 for our annual Carnival Weekend featuring fun and games along the concourse. The annual Kids' Day game will be on the morning of December 13 while the following Saturday (Dec. 16) is the Teddy Bear Toss! The NTDP will host Military Appreciation Weekend on March 15-16 when the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders visit USA Hockey Arena.
HOME COOKING
Team USA enjoyed its best home record during the 2022-23 campaign since moving to USA Hockey Arena in 2015. We'll need that fan support to start early as 10 of the first 13 USHL games on the docket will be on home ice!
MARCH MADNESS
Team USA will play a whopping 17 USHL games in the month of March, the most in any calendar month of the season. Only six of those games will come at USA Hockey Arena as the two teams will visit Cedar Rapids, Des Moines, Chicago, Green Bay, Sioux Falls and Dubuque throughout the month.
ON THE ROAD AGAIN
The Under-17 National Team will have a season-long seven-game road trip midway through the season as they won't skate on home ice from November 24-January 6 in USHL play, with an international tournament coming in the middle of that stretch. During the roadie, the new U17s will experience the atmosphere at the rinks in Youngstown, Chicago, Waterloo, Green Bay and Tri-City.
Details for all 62 games are listed below. All games, times and locations are subject to change. Individual game tickets will go on sale later this summer.
