Thanks

A simple word that means so much to the hundreds of volunteer Coaches, Managers, Trainers, Convenors and House League Executives who donate their valuable time to make our local hockey programs better. Remember to say your thanks to these dedicated individuals. It’s the only pay they get – and probably the only pay that would really matter to them anyway.

The North York Hockey League would like to say a special thanks to the Club Contacts who provide valuable liaison between the League and the teams from each Club. The Club Contact has a particularly onerous role coordinating information, keeping teams appraised of League policy requirements, and advocating for each team’s best interest when conflicts arise. They often have to be the bearers of bad news passing on suspensions and fines when teams and players run amok of League rules. With almost 300 teams in the NYHL it is amazing that 30 Club Contacts can achieve all that they do each year and particularly so in a year when the League has introduced so many changes.

Thanks to the vision and experience of our House League Presidents and the NYHL Board of Directors who, by working together, were able to focus on change where change was needed. It has been a great year for the NYHL and the leadership provided by these individuals has made it possible.
