Do you have questions or concerns about the Minot Hockey Boosters Program? Do you have a really great idea that you think should be implemented? If so, the Program Overview and Recommendation Committee (PORC) is for you.

Come out and share your thoughts. Everyone is welcome to attend. This is your opportunity to be heard and to impact the MHB program in a positive, constructive way.

The PORC meeting will be held on February 13th at 7:30PM.

There will be an MHB Alumni meeting Thursday, February 2^nd at 6:30PM in the MYSA concessions meeting room.  It is open to all current/past MHB parents, coaches, officials and past players.

We will be trying to identify what this group will do moving forward.  In the past they have raised money for our program by working various events, tournaments, membership fees, and been in charge of nominations for the Minot Hockey Boosters Hall of Fame.  All the money they have raised has went back to our program  through equipment purchases and camp scholarships.

I would like to thank all the people who have been involved in the past and hope they will continue to help in the process.

Thank you, Jarrod

Dear USA Hockey-registered Coach,

It is an exciting time to be a part of USA Hockeys Coaching Education Program. Throughout the month of September we will launch our new online age-specific modules. These modules represent a revolutionary approach to help you become the best hockey coach possible. We are providing you with information specific to the age level of play you are coaching so you can reach your players where they are in their developmental process.

Each week in September will feature the launch of a new age level module, beginning with the 8 & Under Module on September 6th. The full schedule is as follows:

      September 6th: 8 & Under (Mites)
      September 13th: 10 & Under (Squirts)
      September 20th: 12 & Under (Peewees)
      September 27th: 14 & Under (Bantams), and 16/18/19 & Under (Midgets)

The modules feature presentations from USA Hockey and current and former National Team Development staff members, NHL and collegiate coaches, and subject-specific experts, i.e., nutritionists, psychologist, etc. Each age level consists of topics ranging from specific skill development (skating, passing, shooting, body contact, etc.) to goaltending to nutrition and sleep needs of players. All subjects and concepts will be conveyed using video presentations, drill examples, white board graphics, animation, etc.

Modules must be completed before December 31st of the current playing season. Once you register you have 30 days in which to complete the module. All modules started after December 1st still must be completed by December 31st. Please click here to find out more information on the modules and to register.

The new CEP requirements passed by USA Hockeys Board of Directors back in June 2010 require you to complete a module for each age level of play you are coaching. You can complete more than one module per season but can only be registered for one module at a time. The cost for each module is $10. You will also need your USA Hockey membership confirmation number in order to register for the modules. Please click here for information on retrieving that number.

USA Hockey recently made a rule change in regards to checking in PeeWee hockey.  There will still be BODY CONTACT in PeeWee hockey.  Please click here to read an article from David Hoff (Northern Plains District Coach in Chief).  This will clarify the misconceptions of the proposal.

Another rule change that will impact NDAHA is Rule 630b Off-sides. This rule allows tag up off-sides for 14U Youth/Girls and above. Starting with this falls 2011/12 season 14U Girls, Bantam Boys, Jr Gold/High School Boys and 19U/High School Girls will all be playing under this delayed off-sides rule.

Also passed at this Congress was Rule 27b that permits state governing bodies to reduce minor penalties to 1 1/2 minutes for games played with periods up to fifteen minutes in length.  Although many affiliates used 1 1/2 minute penalties in the past it wasnt legal to do so. Now NDAHA can allow associations to legally reduce penalties to 1 1/2 minutes. Well have this item on the agenda at the fall meeting. NDAHA should have a uniform policy for 1 1/2 and/or 2 minute penalties for 15 minute periods that all associations follow.

The fourth major rule change that was proposed and voted on at at the Annual Congress was Rule 78b that would no longer allow icing for the short handed team during a penalty. This rule was defeated. A team on the penalty kill will still be able to ice the puck.

Fall 5 on 5 will be starting up soon!  See the online schedules for your age group for dates and times.
