4. How do I submit mileage? Anyone who skates a game in a league that pays mileage monthly will get an email at the end of the month USHL/NAHL/SPHL/NA3HL Frontier Division Email will contain the following Link to Mileage Submission Worksheet Notes on submitting mileage

5. Deadlines Mileage for the preceding month is due at Midnight CST of the 10 th of the month. Example: September Mileage is due on the 10 th of October. No excuses, get it in. Late submissions will be penalized 10% Late submissions will be paid one month later. Submit only for the prior month!

6. Terms All games scheduled through ODP Ranger MUST be included on the worksheet. No exceptions. If it was an ODP scheduled game, it must be included. The ODP Mileage chart (tab on the sheet) must be used. If not coming from a city in the chart, use Google Maps. Submit only for games you drove your car. If you rode with someone- 0 miles If you were provided a rental car by the league (NAHL Alaska)- 0 miles

7. Terms Continued Mileage Alternative Doesn’t exist anymore – Get yourself to your games. Fly, train, or car rental. ONE AND ONLY RULE Do not cost a league more money! Example Live in Chicago, Work with crew from DSM in Omaha, Fly to Omaha. Can only charge CHI-DSM-CHI because crew still drove from DSM to OMA and you would have driven with them.

8. Terms continued Fill out Worksheet and Submission Form. Link can be found ODPLinks.com Follow all directions for saving and submitting form. IMPORTANT: “Click Here” must be clicked to finish submitting mileage. If you don’t do both, you won’t get paid. All leagues are submitted through the same “Click Here” link.

9. How mileage is figured. Whatever league you’re headed TO is responsible for your travel (mileage). Whatever league you work last (before heading home) is responsible for your travel home. Any game within 50 miles (100 miles round trip) is considered a LOCAL game and does not pay mileage. Examples Norwalk house to DSM rink (13 miles)

10. Requesting a mileage exception If you feel that a trip deserves mileage because you are picking up a non-monthly mileage paying league game on your way back from a USHL/NAHL/SPHL game you may request an exception. All exceptions must be requested prior to submitting mileage. Request must be sent to director of that league. Either Chris or Johnathan Chris: NAHL Johnathan: USHL/SPHL Not SCOTT ZELKIN or MARK FAUCETTE!

11. Requesting a mileage exception Example: Live in DSM Skate in Fargo Friday and Saturday Skate in Rochester on Sunday Return home Sunday after your Rochester game. This trip would qualify for a mileage exception. We don’t expect you to drive from Fargo to Rochester to DSM without mileage. This would be a USHL exception request since you’re asking the USHL to pay your mileage. You would email Johnathan and ask for an exception.
