The SECHL is one of the top leagues competing in ACHA Division II and plays at a similar skill level to ACHA Division I and NCAA Division III. Four previous SECHL members (Rutgers University[note 1], Drexel University, Stony Brook University, and New York University) have moved their programs to the ACHA Division I level. The league is very selective in accepting members and is made up of universities that recognize the importance of ice hockey.
Each team plays 14 conference games during a season against fellow SECHL teams, with one on the road and one at their home venue.
The top six teams qualify for the league playoffs which are held over the course of one weekend at the venue of the previous year's champion. All playoff games are single elimination with the winner advancing to the next round. The first and second seeds receive byes into the semifinal round while the remaining four teams play in the quarterfinals.
