COVID Update
I am sure many are wondering where we are with regards to minor hockey.  STMHA is working with our governing hockey bodies, local health authorities and the City.  Our goal is to ensure we get hockey started as quickly and as safely as possible.  With our region being promoted to Phase 3, more conversations are happening with regards to Return to Play protocols and procedures.  




As of right now, we cannot provide a date as to when hockey will start.  We do not know if hockey will be played just locally with no travel or if teams will be allowed to travel to other centres.  Once more information is given to us, we will pass on in a timely fashion. 

STMHA still needs to hold their Annual General Meeting.  We are talking with the City about what we are allowed to do to ensure safety procedures are followed.  We will be looking for 5-6 people who will be interested in joining the board, so please check website frequently for updates.

Thanks
Scott Nugent
STMHA President

True Sport
The True Sport Principles are a rallying point for True Sport members — they are universal. The principles can be brought to life in any sport at any level, from playground to podium. An Olympic rowing squad can embrace these principles with the same sense of pride and purpose as an elementary school, an old-timers' league, or a community hockey arena. For sport to be truly good and have the opportunity to make the greatest difference, all seven of these principles need to be in play at all times, working in perfect balance with one another.
