The Soo Indians, Marquette Sentinels, Portage Lake Pioneers, and Calumet competed in the league.

"The Marquette Sentinels, who skidded to seven straight defeats in the Northern Michigan Hockey League this season, have staged a fine comeback by winning four and tying one in their last five starts. They climaxed the comeback by deadlocking the undefeated Soo Indians 7-7 Thursday night. Jerry Boback, Northern Michigan College student from Detroit, has hit the three-goal hat trick in four of the six games he's played for the Sentinels." -Escanaba Daily Press, 1961-01-14

"The Soo Indians, who had fashioned 10 victories and two ties in Northern Michigan Hockey League competition this winter, tasted defeat for the first time at the hands of the Portage Lake Pioneers, coached by former star player Tony Bukovich. Triggering the Pioneers to a 9-6 victory was John Ricci with two goals and goalie Ray Tapini who had played with the Milwaukee Falcons earlier this season." -Escanaba Daily Press, 1961-01-25
