2 Conference - East and West, with playoffs to assign Lakes Cup

The GLJHL joined USA Hockey for the 2008/2009 season as a Tier III Junior C league.

The Erie Lakers folded before playing any games. The rest of the season was more successful.

The league sent two teams to the USA Hockey 2009 Tier-III Junior Nationals, the Illinois Frontenacs and Chicago Huskies. The teams competed in different divisions of the Junior C competition amongst 6 other teams and met in the semi-finals. Ultimately, the Chicago Huskies became the Tier-III Junior C National Champions, winning over the Atlanta Knights from the SEJHL.

This greatly helped the GLJHL application for a Junior B status. It was granted Junior B status 4 Months after the league started in January 2009.

In May 2010, the league announced a major realignment and expansion for the 2010-2011 season. The GLJHL Danville Inferno relocated to Indanapolis to become the Indianapolis Inferno.
