Hanover Minor Hockey to Apply for Girls Hockey Next Season
Submitted By s.fitzsimmons on Wednesday, October 9, 2013
Hanover Minor Hockey is pleased to announce that we will be making an application to the Ontario Women's Hockey Association, in the hopes of being granted the right to have Girls Hockey in Hanover next season.
"We are very excited about this possibility of doing this. We've wanted to do this for awhile and we believe the time is finally right to make an application. This is long overdue and hopefully we can be approved to move forward with icing a couple girls teams next year." said Hanover Minor Hockey President Steve Fitzsimmons
Hanover Minor Hockey's Board of Directors voted unanimously in favour of moving forward on this proposal. For next season HMH's goal (if our application is approved) is to ice two Atom LL Girls teams to begin with, with further expansion considered after that.
Hanover Minor Hockey will be sending our application in next week. We would love to include some letters of support. If you would like to write one and get it included, to strengthen our submission chances, email it to
[email protected] by Monday, October 14th.
Our previous application to start Girls Hockey was about 8 seasons ago approximately and was rejected. We hope for better luck this time.
