Parent's Meeting Notes
Thank you for all the parents that attended the team meeting yesterday afternoon. Good open communication to essential to success as a team.
For the parents that missed yesterday I have attached some notes of the meeting.
1. Tournaments
We have entered two tournaments this year.
Nov 1, 2 - Glencoe Tournament - $600 entry fee
January 2, 3, and 4 Exeter Tournament - $700 entry fee
Total cost for Tournament is $1300 I have already written cheques for these tournaments. Cost per each child is $77.00 total. If you can get your money to Jim Campbell as soon as you can it would be appreciated.
2. Cash calendars
The draws start on Nov 1 so please get your stubs into Jim Campbell.
3. Ice time
We have a big squad this year with 17 players. We are going to have 2 goalies who split each game, 6 defencemen, and 9 forwards. I will do my best to roll the lines giving equal ice. There may be a possibility if we get into tournaments that we shorten the bench if a game is close but only if absolutely necessary.
4. Arriving at rink
Games - I expect the kids to be at the rink 40 minutes prior to the game and dressed and ready to go 10 minutes before the game.
Practices - I expect the boys to be at the rink 30 minutes prior to the game and ready to go on the ice when the Zamboni is finished. I plan my practices down to the minute to get maximum benefit from the time on the ice
5. Practices
Practices are not optional. I expect the boys to be at practice. This is when we work on our skills and where they gain their confidence with the puck. I try to build my practices one on top of the other so if they miss a practice they are behind. If your child can't make a practice or a game please let me know a head of time.
I am looking forward to a great year with your boys watching them improve and grow in confidence.
