The Metroplex Christian Hockey Association (MCHA) is Christian-led outreach ministry dedicated to sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with the ice hockey community by building camaraderie in the midst of a great hockey experience.
For nearly 20 years, MCHA operated an independent adult hockey league called the Integrity Hockey League (IHL). Started in 2006, IHL grew from just a few teams to over 35 teams in 6 skill divisions, leading to a strategic partnership to merge the IHL with the Dallas Stars Children’s Health StarCenters and launch the Stars Premier Adult Hockey League (SPAHL) in September 2024, with day-to-day operations managed by the StarCenters and ministry activities driven by MCHA.
With programs ranging from competitive to novice divisions, SPAHL continues the MCHA heritage of providing a safe and fun environment for the ice hockey player, their family and friends. Although MCHA is a Christian-led organization, everyone regardless of their faith is welcome to play on MCHA-led teams in the SPAHL.
MCHA is registered as a non-profit 501c3 with the IRS, and is a registered partner of TAHA. A copy of the organizational by-laws can be accessed here:
