About Us

Mission Statement

The mission of the Des Moines Adult Hockey Association (DMAHA) is to promote the growth and development of amateur adult ice hockey in Central Iowa. DMAHA will work to provide the best possible experience for all players by providing an environment that stimulates a fun, enjoyable and competitive experience for all skill levels.  We are an independent non-profit association built by hockey players for hockey players.

Organizational Structure

This not-for-profit organization (501C-7) was created to represent the adult hockey players in Central Iowa.  Any excess funds that are left over at the end of the season will remain within our organization and invested in future advancement of our leagues or applied to the next season to lower the cost to each player.  We have no direct affiliation with any rink outside of our season ice contracts.  The board members/officers are all volunteers and receive no compensation for their work with our organization. All members have a voice in this organization and are encouraged to take an active role by attending meetings and volunteering for office or league committees when the opportunities arise.  Voting will occur annually so if you don’t like they way things have been run, you can have someone nominate you for a position.
