Tucker Hockey Statement

Information Bulletin – No: 8

Dated: Tuesday November 18th, 2020

Subject: Pausing of our 2020 Fall Group Hockey Programs 

To Our Loyal Tucker Hockey Participants, Parents, and Hockey Friends;

The Government of Alberta in partnership with Alberta Health Services (AHS) announced a two – week temporary pause of indoor group activities, which includes hockey.

This two – week pause will run from Friday November 13 to Friday November 27, 2020.

During this time, all Tucker Hockey group programs are temporarily cancelled. From our perspective, the health and safety of our participants, parents, instructors, and community is of paramount importance.

While we are extremely disappointed with the sudden shutdown, we understand the reasons why and support all Albertans during this second wave. We must ensure this spike in positive Covid cases and hospitalizations does not get any worst in the weeks and months ahead.

Tucker Hockey has worked extremely hard on guidelines and protocols to ensure the safety of our participants and instructors. We hope we will be back on the ice on November 29 to continue our Fall group programs.

However, this is not guaranteed unless things improve in the days ahead. We are cautiously optimistic moving forward.

Fall Program Credits on File:

In the meantime, for the on ice sessions cancelled, we will place pro – rated credits on file. For example if you paid $469 for your Fall program. You will receive a credit of $47 for 1 session, $94 for 2 sessions and $141 for 3 sessions respectively for your cancelled sessions.

Options to Use your Credits:

Option 1:   Attend make up sessions in our other remaining Fall group programs; in addition to the group program you had registered for this Fall 2020.

Option 2:    Attend make up sessions in our Winter 2021 programs / sessions scheduled to start up in January 2021.

Option 3:    Apply your credits towards the price of one of our 2021 Winter group programs. 

Option 4:   Apply your credits towards any of our year round programs until December 31, 2022.     

Credits will not be placed on file until after the Fall programs are complete. You will receive an email once your credit has been placed on file. If you would like to use your missed sessions to attend make up sessions in our other remaining Fall group programs please email programs@tuckerhockey.com to arrange this setup.    

Next Information Bulletin:

We will be issuing our next bulletin sometime later next week or whenever further updates on the status of group indoor activities are provided. We will be monitoring daily updates from Alberta Health Services and any notices from the City of Calgary Parks & Recreation. We will keep you abreast of how future announcements / restrictions may affect our upcoming hockey programs /sessions.

We THANK YOU in advance for your support, understanding and consideration as we navigate along with you; managing the uncertainties, managing our stresses and managing change during this unprecedented time.

Stay Healthy & Safe:

In the meantime, it’s extremely important for all of us to do our part to fight this pandemic.

  • Wash our hands regularly
  • Wear a mask
  • Maintain our physical distancing – 6 feet apart
  • Reduce our social circles
  • Most importantly – respect the virus

Really the top priority for everyone is the HEALTH, SAFETY, AND WELL BEING of the general public at large.
