After forming the National Men's Hockey Team to take part in Cherry Cup XX, interest sparked in the nation, and a decision was decided to form the Del Risian Professional Hockey League.

The DRPHL was formed as a national league to promote the game and provide top-level competition in the sport of hockey. 24 franchises (6 from each ethnic area) were admitted into the league for the inaugural season, and more may be added depending on many factors. The divisions are yet to be set, and work on the schedule, playoff format, and other details will follow shortly.
