  • Women's Division III is a set of schools and conferences that sponsor women's hockey and abide by the National Collegiate Athletic Association's rules and regulations for Division III ice hockey. Six of the seven conferences that sponsor Division III hockey have women's divisions: * Colonial Hockey Conference (CHC) * ECAC West * Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) * Northern Collegiate Hockey Association (NCHA) * New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) * New England Hockey Conference (NEHC) * Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) The one conference that does not match up with a men's league is the Colonial Hockey Conference which does have several of its male counterparts playing in the Commonwealth Coast Conference which is an all sports Division III league. Most of the remaining schools do not have conference's to match their male team's as there are ten Division II and III leagues for men. The other three leagues are all sport leagues and do not have enough teams offering women's ice hockey to make offering the sport practical. The only women's conferences that may be formed over the next few seasons is the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC)as the ECAC West is losing all of its not SUNYAC members to the newly formed United Collegiate Hockey Conference and the Northeast-10 conference whose members are being forced out of the New England Hockey Conference over issues of the Division II teams' games counting towards consideration for bids to the NCAA tournament. The only conference that offers men's ice hockey that is not a reality for a women's conference forming is the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference which only has two members that have women's ice hockey. These seven conferences represent 61 of the 63 teams that compete at the Division III level in women's hockey. Four of those teams are from Division II and Division I schools that compete in Division III leagues to fill out their schedules, as there is no Division II NCAA championship in ice hockey. Such teams are ineligible for postseason play.
