The Philadelphia Hockey Club, proud members of the Eastern Hockey League (EHL), is pleased to announce an affiliation with the New Jersey Renegades of the Eastern Hockey League Premier (EHLP). The announcement was made jointly with PHC’s Head Coach and General Manager Adam Bartholomay and his Renegades counterpart Cliff Graziano.
“I am thrilled to announce that PHC has decided to have an affiliate relationship with the Renegades” stated Bartholomay. We believe there are a lot of strong players in the Renegades program and this is a logical path to the next level from the EHLP to the EHL and then ultimately procuring an NCAA commitment.”
“With a strong working relationship with the Renegades, the objective is to identify and advance players from their program to PHC. It will prove to be a great pipeline for a Renegades player to get into our PHC program. The Renegades have a strong owner in Cliff Graziano, and today he has shown his commitment and care of advancing players to a proven program in PHC by entering into this affiliation relationship” added Bartholomay.
"I'm excited to affiliate with The Philadelphia Hockey Club's EHL Team and Head Coach Adam Bartholomay” said Graziano. “Bart and I share the same philosophy towards the development of players and we will be assisting each other in scouting for each other's programs as well. I look forward to working with him in a collective effort for our teams and all our players" concluded Graziano.
The PHC EHL team just finished its second year in the league. During that time, PHC has advanced eight players onto NCAA college commitments. PHC plays its home games at the Hollydell Ice Arena in Sewell, NJ.
The Renegades just finished their seventh season in the EHLP, and have been a junior team going into their 17th season starting off in the old Met League since 2008-2009. The Renegades play their home games at the SportsCare Arena in Randolph, NJ.
