March 2010   

The minor hockey season will come to a close for most our teams on March 8th. That date is the Superleague Championship Day as the atom, pee wee, bantam and midget finalists play for the league championship. The Pee Wee consolation and championship games will be played here at Sunwave Centre on Monday evening.

Good luck to all teams.

            SAMHA has three remaining tournaments….the Female Midget Recreation tourney March 5, 6 and 7, the Bantam Recreation Shuswap Cup tourney on March 12, 13 and 14 and  finally, the Atom Development tourney which takes place on March 19, 20 and 21. All the best to participating teams.

            Congratulations to all our winners in the recent Minor Hockey Raffle draw:

Abbas El Gazzar, Nick E, Ian Canthorpe, Mark Moreike, Russ Gibson, Evan Hughes, Jodi Gray and Tracy Zaiec. Thank you to all for supporting the raffle.

Congratulations go to Harley Bootsma and Brad Whitehead for selling the most tickets and to the Atom Development team for top team sales. Special thanks to directors Phaedra Turner, Rochelle Dale, Kari Mostat, Candy Wrench and Kelly Fournier for assisting this year.

            We thank the following businesses who donated prizes: Prestige Resort,

Rosedale on Robson Hotel, Pro Active Fitness, Ark Masonry, Chevy’s Sports, Salmon Arm Silverbacks, Panago Pizza and Wade Stewart.

            A few reminders of upcoming events: The Annual Minor Hockey Awards Day will be held on Monday, May 3rd at Sunwave Centre. All coaches from Novice to Midget will be submitting names to their respective division directors and winners will be contacted shortly thereafter. If you wish to nominate any minor hockey volunteer in the area of Volunteer of the Year, Unsung hero, President’s Award, Coach of the Year….please submit your nomination to the respective division director as soon as possible. The selection committee will review all submissions and make the final decision. There certainly are a number of deserving people in our association. Following the awards ceremony, minor hockey will have their annual general meeting at Sunwave Centre. Voting for the 2010-11 board will take place at this meeting. If you are interested in being part of the board, please have someone nominate you. Further information can be found on our website or you can phone this office for more details.

            We ask all coaches to collect the jerseys, pucks, etc and return them to their respective team locker at season end. Please have them washed…thank you.

            Coaches evaluation form…the division director will be sending to your child’s coach an evaluation form which will be sent to all parents requesting  feedback on your coaches this year. This will be summarized by the Coach coordinator and shared where necessary to the coaches. Completed forms can be dropped into the SAMHA mailbox.

            Finally, income tax receipts…Director Candy Wrench has sent out income tax receipts to all parents. If you have not received yours. please contact Candy at jcwrench@telus.net.

            To everyone, hope you take a special time to thank your coaching staff and parent rep before the season ends. Being an active member of minor hockey is not an easy task…some say there is more stress here than their regular job. The rewards may be few and far between at times and a sincere thank you from players and parents is all that is needed to feel the coach’s efforts have been appreciated!
