I’ve just moved to Tokyo from Vancouver, and I’m hoping to get involved with the local hockey scene here. Are there any resources on how rec hockey works in Japan / Tokyo? Ideally I’d love to join a team, but I’d settle for drop in stick and puck scrimmages, but I’m not sure where to start looking. Most of the posts about hockey in this sub are several years old. I tried to follow some old advice I found and sent a Facebook message to the Tokyo Canadians H.C., but they didn’t reply. Any help being pointed in the right direction is appreciated!

Try contacting one of those teams in the 社会人 leagues. Since you probably aren’t a student? Those are the only leagues you’ll be able to join.
Just so you know, there isn’t really a scene here in Japan. It exists, but you wont likely find any scrimmages or weekend games to just join. Its a lot more organized.
