2024–25 NA3HL season

The 2024–25 NA3HL season is the 15th season of the North American 3 Hockey League. The regular season ran from September 6, 2024 to March 9, 2025 with a 47-game schedule for each team. The Helena Bighorns won the regular season championship. The Louisiana Drillers defeated the West Bend Power 5–1 in the Championship game to capture the Fraser Cup.

Showcases The league held a showcase tournament at the Schwan Super Rink in Blaine, Minnesota from December 15 to 17.

A prospect tournament was also held in mid-February at the USA Hockey Arena.

Member changes The league reached an affiliation agreement with the ECHL's Tulsa Oilers in December of 2023. The Tulsa Jr. Oilers played their inaugural season this year.

In April of 2024, the NAHL's Minnesota Wilderness purchased the dormant Minnesota Loons franchise and moved the club to Eveleth, Minnesota. The team took on both the name and colors of the parent club and would resume play this season. Less than a week later, the Maine Nordiques, also of the NAHL, purchased another dormant NA3HL team, the Lewiston/Auburn Nordiques. The new franchise would also possess the same name as its parent club but would use different colors.

The NA3HL announced the addition of the Binghamton Buzz as an expansion franchise on May 9, 2025.

The following day, the Oregon Tradesmen announced that they were relocating to Blaine, Minnesota and would become the Minnesota Moose.

One day on, the league expanded again with the transfer of the Carolina Rage from the Carolinas Hockey League, a midget-level (under-18) circuit. Due to the team's inactivity for the previous season, their entry was delayed until the 2025–26 season.

When the league released this season's schedule in July, neither the Danbury Jr. Hat Tricks nor the Mid-Cities Jr. Stars were included. The league did not comment on the removal of either team from the league.
