Bemidji at two grades
Bemidji Bucks and Hibbing Miners are Class A Section 5. Bemidji Blue Ox and Roseau Royals are Class B District 5. Agassiz, Fosston, Rainy Lake and Warroad are Class C Region 4.
Bemidji fielding one Class A club and one Class B club, both in the same league, is the clearest structural fact on this page: the town has enough players for two rosters at different standards.
The league publishes no rules of its own; the association's criteria set the grades.
High Cheese keeps a league's own agreements beside its schedule.
