Bay Area Street Hockey
BASH is a non-profit, competitive street hockey league founded in 1991. We play on the asphalt of San Francisco, keeping the spirit of outdoor competition alive.
Fall Season
Our primary, highly competitive 5-on-5 season runs from September through April. New players must attend one of our August tryouts/pick-ups to be eligible for the draft.
Summer Season
A slightly less competitive, but just as fun, 4-on-4 season running from May to August. No tryouts needed, all adults are welcome to sign up and play!

NBHL Competition
BASH currently fields one Tier 2 team, and 3 Tier 3 teams that compete in the California Division of the National Ball Hockey League (NBHL). If we win our division during the summer weekends in SoCal, the League Finals take place in New Jersey in September. Our teams are open to any players who have played in BASH, selected based on talent, experience, availability and team chemistry. Questions? Contact sf.bash.hockey@gmail.com.
FAQ
Do I need experience?
No! All adults (18+) are welcome. We recommend stopping by a Dolores Park pick-up to watch or run a few shifts if you're unsure.
