The Granville Gators, Grand Rapids RiverFrogs, Kalamazoo Jones Soda, and Muskegon Comets will make up the Great Leakes Division. "We are extremely excited to join forces with the MERHL. By joining the leagues, we are bringing some of the most talented players in the United States together. This is the step we needed to take to become the premier roller hockey league in North America," said DiDomenico. The league plans on having two weekends during the season of crossover games.
