Stevenson Patriots hockey

Below are the latest updates regarding Spring/Summer Stevenson Hockey in light of COVID-19.

Spring tryout date has been moved to May 4th from 6:25pm to 8:35pm for all players at Twin Rinks.

Stevenson Hockey will also host 2 sessions of Pre-Tryout Clinic on May 3rd at Hot Shot.

For returning players: 7:15pm - 8:20pm (1st session)

For new players: 8:25pm - 9:30pm (second session)

Stevenson Hockey has been working diligently to develop plans for rolling out a virtual program while we are unable to be on the ice due to the shelter in place order.

Starting March 30th, available for anyone that has registered for the Spring or Spring/Summer program, we will begin virtual workouts 4 days per week. The workouts will take place Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday at 5:15 and last approximately 45 minutes. These virtual workouts will be led by Coach Dan and Pete from Crossfit Carbon. Equipment will NOT be needed for these workouts (outside of something you already will have in your house - for example, a chair). They will take place via Zoom. Players will be able to see the coaches perform/lead the workouts and they will have the option to utilize their webcam for coaches to see players. This is optional but will allow coaches to help with proper technique. Just like we utilize during the Fall season, all individual workout progress will be tracked on the Sugarwod app. A separate instruction email will follow closer to the March 30th start with all the download and access information.

For those new to the Stevenson Hockey program or those looking for a refresher on the software, we will be holding a coach information session on March 29th at 4pm. Everyone will have the ability to login to a WebEx where we walk through the steps to get ready for the virtual training as well ask Coaches any questions you have.

Additionally, weekly on Sunday’s the Coaching Team will send out an email with hockey specific drills and videos that can be done at home. These will focus on stickhandling and if possible shooting activities.

At this point, Tryouts will be pushed to April 29th 7:40-9:00 and April 30th 7:30-8:50. All players should attend all sessions. All games scheduled in April, we are rescheduling in May. The tournament originally scheduled for the 4/24 weekend was rescheduled to the 5/15 weekend. The stated hockey break from 5/23-5/30 will likely be canceled so we can utilize that time to make up missed ice in April and allow for additional scheduling opportunities.

If you have not yet registered, please do so to participate in the virtual activities. Anyone that has opted to pay offline, will still be able to participate on the basis of good faith that payment will be received at Tryouts. If you would like to pay now or can pay now, it would be appreciated to reach out to me and help the club for cash flow purposes. Should anyone have a issue with payment due to work situations in light of COVID-19, please reach out to Katie Wood (katiewood628@gmail.com) as we are willing to work with anyone through this situation.

If you know of any other players not currently registered but are in the Stevenson district, feel free to invite them to register for the program!
