Australia’s AIHL has been around since the 2000-01 season. The league plays its regular season during the southern hemisphere’s winter (North America’s late spring and summer months). The 2012 regular season started on April 28 for the nine team league.
The AIHL appeals to foreign players hoping to play the game year round. Among those players Down Under is Brockport alumnus Lucas Schott who spent three years with the Golden Eagles with whom he racked up 32 points in 68 collegiate games. Schott spent 2011-12 in the Federal Hockey League, starting the season with the Danbury Whalers and finishing off with the Brooklyn Aviators.
