Editor’s Note:
Our 7th Annual 3 on 3 Spring Program was a big success!
There are many people to thank!
Firstly, our dedicated-on ice instructor team of:
Head Instructors:
Bobby Zinkan & Chad Labelle
Assistant Instructors:
Hunter Brown, Korwin Brost, Nic Morency, Rob Frid & Ty Koch.
Excellent job team delivering the 64-session program which included overseeing our 3 separate
development on ice stations, managing the 3 on 3 fast paced full ice play and helping to develop the
players each week in a positive & fun learning environment!
Secondly, our dynamic off-ice administrative team of:
Assistant Business Manager
Candace DiGiacomo
Assistants:
Tara Flannery and Marcela Tucker
Supreme work ladies dealing with player registrations, creating team rosters for each ice session,
scoreboard management / stats and fielding parent inquiries and other countless administrative details
throughout the spring. Well done! Bravo!!
We strive each Spring to provide the best 3 on 3 development experience possible for everyone
within our tried-and-true program methodology. We know each individual player is a better player
after participating in our program whether win or lose.
Please remember it is not all about winning and losing.
Rather developing each player’s hockey skills and life skills to get them to the next level of hockey
and having fun at the rink as well.
When watching the championship games I was really impressed with the strong team play, smart puck
management, responsible shift changes, good communications and intense play on the ice.
It warmed my heart to witness the growth and development of the players.
A big improvement from start to finish – learning how to play 3 on 3 fast paced hockey.
For the first time in the history of our program, we had a championship game extend to sudden death
overtime to determine a Winner! Drama! Wow! What an exciting finish to our Group 1: U13 – 1st year
U15 Division!
Last but not least, a special thank you to the enthusiastic players and their dedicated parents / families
who wished to experience our spring hockey development. Thank you for coming out!
We hope to see you again at the rink soon! Have a great Summer! Hockey & Smiles!!
Best wishes,
Yours in Hockey,
