USPHL Midwest

The United States Premier Hockey League (USPHL) is an American ice hockey league. Founded in 2012, the USPHL has grown to 56 organizations from across the United States fielding teams in Premier, Elite, Midwest, USP3, 18U, 16U and 16U Futures divisions. The former Empire Division was re-named the USP3 Division for the 2015-16 season.

USA Hockey classifies the Premier, Elite, Midwest, and USP3 Divisions as Tier III junior hockey leagues. 18U, 16U and 16U Futures divisions are Tier I youth hockey divisions. All divisions are sanctioned by USA Hockey.

The USPHL announced on December 18, 2014 the formation of a Midwest Division to begin in the 2015-16 season by adding several teams from the Minnesota Junior Hockey League. By the end of the season, the Midwest Division would add all but one active MnJHL team causing the MnJHL to disband for the following season. On March 10, 2014, the USPHL also added the entire Midwest Junior Hockey League to its new Midwest Division for the 2015-16 season. USPHL Midwestbecame the fourth Tier III division under the USPHL umbrella.
