The nest laid plans of the SDFHL Wing League 2025 captains finally broke shell and chirped their first chirps, as Week One got underway with a full slate of games. It’s still very unclear which team will ‘come first’, but half of the clutch has (impressively) already learned to fly in W formation…

It takes two wings to fly, and this season throws a nod to that feathery dyad with TWO logos. As fate would have it, five teams chose one logo, and five the other. Whichever crest is on your chest, it’s finally time for a new season of SDFHL hockey to take flight!

The ‘Wing’ in ‘SDFHL Wing League 2025’ is simply short for ‘Winter/Spring’, but sometimes you just have to go literal with a theme, and that we did this time around. Ten chirping hatchlings are safe and cozy in their respective nests, living it up on regurgitated worms and flapping their fledgling wings into flying form. The flock will take to the air in the new year, and it will eventually become clear which ones are lame ducks and which are the birds of prey…

It’s hard to believe that Captain Janet Goins’ ‘Abelol Schmidts’ started their Fall League 2024 campaign with two losses, then fell to 1-3-0 coming into the midway point. Seventy-seven days, zero losses, and eight wins later….champions! Congratulations to Captain Goins’ and her mates for an inspired run from cut line castoff to Cup carriers.

Captain Nick Meglich’s ‘Tanqueray & TwoNicks’ proved double trouble for Captain Zach Salt’s Lime and Captain Jon Salt’s Heather Blue, shaking off both bro’s broods to advance to the SDFHL Fall League 2024 Final against Orange on December 8th.
