Colonial Hockey Conference
The Colonial Hockey Conference (CHC) was an athletic conference that operated in the northeastern United States. It participated in the NCAA's Division III as an ice hockey-only conference and included only women's teams. The formation of the conference was originally announced in late 2014 under the ECAC umbrella, with the conference to be known as the ECAC North Atlantic. The eight founding institutions all had either independent or newly formed women's hockey teams, so no teams had to switch conferences to join the ECAC-NA. In 2015, however, just before the conference's first season commenced, the members announced that the conference would be renamed the Colonial Hockey Conference, dropping the ECAC affiliation. The conference lasted until the 2019-20 season, when the Commonwealth Coast Conference took over operations.https://www.uscho.com/2019/10/05/commonwealth-coast-conference-starting-womens-hockey-in-2020-21-will-assume-operation-of-colonial-hockey-conference/ At that ...

NCAA
The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) is a nonprofit organization that regulates student athletics among about 1,100 schools in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. It also organizes the athletic programs of colleges and universities in the United States and Canada and helps over 500,000 college student athletes who compete annually in college sports. The organization is headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. Until 1957, the NCAA was a single division for all schools.

In August 1973, the current three-division system of Division I, Division II, and Division III was adopted by the NCAA membership in a special convention.
