Being a Hockey Parent

The mom who gave us all that info is a 'talker' if you know what I mean. She knows something about EVERYTHING!

We could techincally be called new. Even though about 1/3 of the team has been together for years, our organization hasn't had a U16 team for a few years.

We've heard horror stories for years about other teams and their costs. Even with paying for all of our coaches traveling expense and rooms, brand new uniforms, bags, warmups, gloves and shells our cost to play this year was about $3700. We did have a couple people fly to Mn, but not many. I think that trip is the farthest we travel this year so all in all I think we're lucky in regards to travel!
