*** PLEASE NOTE: Euclid C.E. Orr Ice Arena will open on Friday, September 23, 2011.  Our "home" practice schedule will start on Monday, September 26.  There is a possibility that some teams may have practices that first weekend (23, 25, 25) if ice time becomes available (at Euclid). 

Pre-Season Games
Scheduling for CSHL games will begin after September 22nd.  Teams will participate in a minimum of 4 games (maximum of 10) in the pre-season.  I will meet with the coaches prior to scheduling and encourage all teams to participate in 6-8 games in the preseason.  Each Head coach is given the authority to schedule the appropriate number of games that they feel is best for their individual teams.  Parents should let their Head Coaches know if players will be unavailable to participate in games between Thursday, September 22nd – Sunday, October 23rd.

Player Releases for Players New to CSHL
Per CSHL Rules (listed below) , any player who is switching from a different program to EYHA must request a release from the previous years program.  A formal release is required before that player may participate in any games for EYHA.  Please forward all releases, questions about releases, or requests for release to Rick Kish, EYHA Hockey Director, via email (rick.kish@eyha.net).

Roster/Team Assignments (Squirts, Peewees, and Bantams)
 Currently, most families have heard about team placement for their children if they are playing for the Squirt, Peewee, or Bantam teams.  Please contact Rick Kish, Hockey Director, if you have not heard or have a question about team placement.

Peewee and New Players Wanted

Currently, we have a huge need for players in the 11-12 age group for our Peewee 2 team.  If you know of someone who would like to start playing hockey and are a bit older please encourage them to come and give it a try.  We also are planning a Try Hockey for Free Event for prospective players on October 1st.  Further information will be released in the next week.

Coaches and Team Managers

Additional Coaches and Team Managers are needed.   For further information or to volunteer please contact Rick Kish.

That's all for right now.  Please let  us know if you have any questions or suggestions.

With best regards,

Rick
