Responsible Coaching Awards
Twice a year, we look to recognize and celebrate youth hockey coaches who
embody the principles of Responsible Coaching. It's the
coach who not only teaches the game of hockey, but helps mentor our
kids in the game of life. These coaches place character, sportsmanship
and the well being of their players above the wins. They demonstrate a
level of responsibility that deserves recognition.
Nominations are being accepted through February 28, 2009. Nominate your coach today! >>
Responsible Sports Community Grants
Need some extra funding for your youth hockey organization? Would a
$2,500 Community Grant help you curb some of the expense of running a
successful youth hockey program? Each spring and fall, Liberty Mutual
awards the twenty organizations that have the most certifications
credited to their organization in their division a $2,500 grant.
Administrators will be able to register to participate in the grant
program in February 2009. Certifications can be credited starting in
March 2009. Learn more. >>
