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! >>
