Welcome,


As the start of the season approaches I’m sure that everyone is excited.  Here are a couple of things to keep in mind .

  • Practices are Saturdays from 10:40-11:40 (Start Date is Sept. 26).

  • A parent meeting will be held in the upstairs mezzanine at the arena after practice week 2 (Oct. 3)

  • Please put your child's name on the front of their helmet with some tape and a marker.

  • A parent of each player is required to complete the ‘Respect in Sports- Parent Program’. (The link for this program can be found on the Petrolia Minor Hockey Website)

  • Every family who has a child or children registered in PMHA must submit two Volunteer Cheques in an amount to be determined by the Executive of PMHA. Your Team Parent Rep will collect two posted dated volunteer cheques in the amount of $500 each, at the beginning of the season.  Each cheque equals 6 hours of volunteer time.  Simply stated, you volunteer 12 hours to PMHA and your cheques will be destroyed.  These cheques need to be postdated for Jan. 15th and April 15th of the current season.

  • By the 3rd or 4th week, we will break the players into 2 teams (Yellow and Green).  

  • Each Week the practice sessions will be broken into:

    • Warm-up skating and exercises. (5-10 min)

    • 3-4 Stations that focus on skill development (simple drills and games) (20-40 min)

    • Fun Portion (10-15 min) **This will progress to ½ ice games later in the season.

  • Some events to think about:

    • A mini game between periods at a sting game (dates???)

    • Tournament (near the end of the season)


Thanks for all of the offers to help on and off the ice.  The more help the better but only certain positions will get volunteer hours.  I will make every effort to fill positions with people that need volunteer hours.  I will finalize coaching and team positions after week 2. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.


Looking Forward to a Great Season,

Chris Edgar
