Thank you for a wonderful season at Tri-Town Minor Hockey! During the 2023-2024 season we had some exciting changes with the addition of the Tri-Town Sirens 8U Girls team and an extended season with ice into April! We are looking to continue to grow our program with the expansion of our Sirens team and the addition of co-ed spring teams.
We are working hard to ensure we have experienced coaches and an ice schedule to accommodate our growing program for next season. In order to make this easier for all, we are excited to announce that we have opened registration for the 2024-2025 season! Families who register before July 1, 2024 will lock in the 2023-2024 season rates.
We thank you for your patience and understanding as we worked through some growing pains trying to get everything up and running with the new Sports Engine website and app. We know there were several issues with the app. We are happy to report that SE has received our feedback and has made some changes to the app that we think will improve communication in the 2024-2025 season.
TTMH Board of Directors
Due to the recent tragic events, the Tri-Town Minor Hockey Association Board of Directors has made the decision to implement a new safety measure that is of utmost importance to us. Effective November 20th, 2023, we are MANDATING the use of neck guards for all practices and games for all of our minor youth hockey players. Effective immediately we strongly encourage the use of neck guards at all TTMH ice events if you already have one to wear. We are aware that there may be issues trying to get a neck guard immediately. If you are in need of a neck guard they may be purchased locally at HACKER SPORTS right in the Tri-Town Arena, at our concession stand while supplies last, or at MVP Sports in Potsdam. If looking to order one online please see the information below to ensure you are ordering the an approved neck guard.
Safety is our top priority, and this decision is driven by our commitment to protecting the well-being of our young athletes. Neck guards have been proven to reduce the risk of neck and throat injuries during ice-related activities. We believe that by implementing this rule, we are taking a significant step towards ensuring a safer and more secure environment for our youth. At this time we will not be mandating neck guards for our Learn To Skate participants however we strongly encourage the use of one to prepare them for the future. If your child is moved from LTS to a team it will become mandatory to them to begin wearing one on the ice at all times.
Here are the key points regarding this new policy:
Mandatory Requirement: Strongly encouraged immediately, MANDATORY effective November 20, all participants must wear an approved neck guard during practice sessions, games, and any other on-ice activities.
Approved Neck Guards: Please ensure that you choose a neck guard that is both CE and BNQ certified to guarantee safety compliance. While USA hockey does not currently mandate neck guards, Hockey Canada requires them for their minor hockey players and uses these standards for their safety compliance.
Education: Coaches, team managers, and parents are encouraged to educate our young athletes on the importance of wearing neck guards at all times while on the ice.
Compliance: Non-compliance with this policy will result in ineligibility to participate in on-ice events. We do this not only to ensure safety but also to promote a sense of responsibility and respect for the rules of the game.
We understand that the safety of our young athletes is a shared responsibility, and we appreciate your cooperation in implementing this new requirement. We will do our utmost to support parents and athletes in adjusting to this change.
For any questions or concerns, please reach out to our organization's leadership or your team's coach.
Thank you for your commitment to the safety and well-being of our youth athletes. Together, we can make a positive impact on their development, both on and off the ice.
Sincerely,
TTMHA Board of Directors
