Who is in?
From Tom:
"Please respond with your intentions for the
next season.
Notes for the Spring:
Hockey Day is Saturday 5/11/19
With the disappointing rate of forfeits this season and for Saturday
games, from here on you will be charged with a $100.00 forfeit fee if
you no-show for your Saturday game or fail to let me know AT LEAST 1
week in advance. I put this date out early so teams can
prepare.....having a team work around their Saturday game and then have
another team not even bother to call is pretty disrespectful. We all
have families and other things to do.....so a heads up is all I am
asking for. If you give advance warning your team will still have to pay
the usual $50 fee to cover the refs/sk for the hour, but not the
additional $50 inconvenience fee which will be given as a credit to the
other team for the following season. THis is NOT a money grab....it's a
deterrent for teams. There were 2 no-shows and 4 forfeits this last set
of Saturday games.
Jerseys
If your team needs jerseys or pants do not
hesitate to ask me about them....the turnaround once an order is placed
is about 3 weeks.....if you want them during this upcoming season then
you need to get to me by the end of April. Jerseys are $55 for a minimum
of 5 pcs.....pants are $50 ea. If you do a pant/jersey combo I can do it
for $90/player. Re-orders have no minimums but are at full price. I have
a full set of sizing samples available at the rink as well.
Scoresheets
The stats seem to be going well, thanks to Steve
Napolitano. The best way to ensure that they are accurate is that you
check them after the game and make sure the scorekeeper gets them right
during the game. We are using the GAMES PLAYED on the stats site to
determine playoff eligibility, so MAKE SURE that is accurate and all of
your players get credit for games they play. Players MUST have played in
4 games to be eligible to play in the playoffs....with exceptions for
injury, or if the player is a FULL SHARE PAID player on your roster. (
Which has to have been submitted to me PRIOR to the season's start).
Draft League
Our draft leagues are going great....if you haven't
tried it yet, please ask me for more info....LOTS of fun and we have big
things planned for the future to expand them.
Tournaments
I have a
Saturday draft-style tournament planned for April and a full-team,
regular style tourney for July. If you are interested in either let me
know.
Hockey Fest
I am penciling in a date in July for 'Hockey Fest'.
Where we open our doors to everyone for a day of hockey and vendors. I
want to jump start youth hockey here and this is the kick off. We will
have skating lessons for kids, adults, hockey clinics for adults, a
'Pro" level game for everyone to watch, and some pickup games for people
to try out the game. If you have a company that would like table space
where the audience is hockey, health, or sports related, let me know so
we can arsomethingmthing.
2nd Annual DMCCF Summer Classic
Saturday
August 17th, 2019 Save the date!
Ask me about playing in this AWESOME
event that benefits a GREAT cause!
See you all around the rink!"
