Division 4, Andre...help me out here, is this the one where you pay to play and it's just a glorified beer league (maybe hold the "glorified" even)...I believe that's 6 tiers down from Sweden's top league (maybe 5)...I'm trying to think of an equivalent here without saying "organized house league" ...far worse than the Central League and the LNAH...probably a little below the FHL here, maybe? At least the FHL had Daigenais though...
I wouldn't necessarily call this pro...but good find.
Of note, the team he was transferred from is just called "Hanson Brothers" after the movie Slapshot. Nothing screams house league like a team called "Hanson Brothers"
Yeah, d4 is pretty much the equivalent of sub-single A. By definition it is pro since they do receive a check, but it's minimal. A friend of a friend played D4 over in Germany last year or maybe even 2009-10, and he was set up with housing and a small check. But yeah, it's basically a low, low single-A league that makes some of the early ECHL arenas look like the Montreal Forum.
There's some info on the lower Euro leagues at HFBoards.
