Subject: 10 & Under Teams
[Waukesha County Youth Hockey Association (WCYHA) is looking
for 10 & under
teams! Although not a USA Hockey age designation, we are lucky to have
the
numbers to skate a 10 & under team - possibly 2 teams! I know that
Minnesota has some tournaments for this age classification and Canada
also
has teams in this age group.]
[The above was stated in a prior e-mail post. I would like to correct
that
USA Hockey does have the 10 and under age classification for girls
nationwide. It was added in the 1998-99 season to try to increase teams
at
the grassroots level. Minnesota does have girls teams at this level and
that number should continue to increase in the coming years as more girls
begin to participate at the younger levels. We are proud of our growth in
Minnesota at both the youngest and oldest levels of girls/women's hockey
and
it appears that it will continue. I will provide some numbers after the
next Minnesota Hockey (formerly known as Minnesota Amateur Hockey
Association - MAHA) annual meeting coming up next weekend in Alexandria,
Minnesota. Hopefully, the USA Hockey Registrar for the Minnkota District
will have updated numbers for the 1998-99 season. ]
I did not know this. I thought that the added age classifications
and aligning birthdates with boys was "tabled" for the
umpteenth consecutive year at the USA Hockey Annual Meeting. This
is good news.
Guess I better get a 98-99 rule book before the 99-00 season
starts!
BTW, you should be proud of girls hockey in Minnesota. We will be
adding a second 10 & Under team, so we're trying to keep up!

As I said, I haven't seen the most current rule book, but
the USA Hockey Web Site still does not list 10 & Under as an age
classification.

Are they just behind in updating the site?

HEALY APPOINTED HEAD COACH OF UNDER-22 WOMEN'S TEAM
CALGARY, AB -- Melody Davidson, of Calgary AB, has been named head
coach of Canada's National Women's Hockey Team for the 1999-2000
season, and Julie Healy, of Verdun QC, has been named head coach of
the National Women's Under 22 Team, Canadian Hockey Association
vice-president, hockey Tom Renney announced Monday.
Davidson, 35, was the head coach of the National Under-22 Women's Team
in 1998-99 which won the gold medal at the Christmas Cup in Unna,
Germany in 1998. Davidson is also the women's hockey coach at
Connecticut College.
"This is quite an honor for me," said Davidson. "My experience with
the National Under 22 Team and previous National teams has prepared me
for this challenge. I now look forward to working with the National
Women's Team, especially given the fact that the World Championship is
in Canada next year."
Davidson replaces Daniele Sauvageau, the National Women's Team head
coach in 1998-99, who has been asked to take on a supporting role with
the Women's High Performance program. Sauvageau, a leading candidate
to coach Canada's entry in the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, has been
asked to give technical support to both National Teams in the coming
year as well as assisting the General Manager of Female High
Performance, Gaetan Robitaille, with player identification and
evaluation. The CHA plans to announce the 2002 Olympic coaching staff
in May, 2000.
"The key to our high performance success has been providing Canadian
coaches with the opportunity to apply their skills in high
performance competition," said Tom Renney, Vice-president, Hockey at
the Canadian Hockey Association. "Knowing Daniele can do this allows
us the ability to give another coach the same opportunity. Based on
her performance with the Canadian Women's Team last year, Daniele has
set a standard for others to match which bodes well for her in the
future."
Renney also named the assistant coaches for the National Women's Team:
Karen Hughes, an assistant coach with the National Women's Team in
1998-99 and Wally Kozak, coach with the Oval X-treme of Calgary,
finalists at the 1999 Esso National Women's hockey championship.
Hughes is also head coach of the University of Toronto's women's
hockey team. Ken Dufton, an assistant coach with the
National Women's Team in 1998-99, has also been asked continue in a
support role in the High Performance program, assisting in player
evaluation.
The coaches will conduct an evaluation camp for the National Women's
Team this fall and get together for a pre-competition camp and
tournament in early 2000 in preparation for the sixth Women's World
Championship in Mississauga, ON in April 2000.
Renney also announced that Julie Healy, head coach of Equipe Quebec,
champions at the 1999 Esso National Women's Hockey Championship, has
been named as head coach of the National Women's Under 22 Team.
Healy, 41, was an assistant coach with the National Under-22 Team in
1998-99 and is currently an assistant coach of the women's hockey team
at Concordia University.
"I'm looking forward to the challenges of the next year with the
Under-22 team," said Julie Healy. "I have really enjoyed my
involvement with the CHA's Women's High Performance Program since
1995, and see this as a very important step in my development as a
coach."
Healy's assistant coaches will be Nancy Wilson, who was the head coach
of the British Columbia women's hockey team at the 1999 Canada Winter
Games and Bill Bowker, head coach of Ontario's gold medal-winning
women's team at the 1999 Canada Winter Games.The Under-22 team will
hold a NIKE High Performance camp this summer.
"These are all outstanding coaches who we expect to enhance our female
high performance programs tremendously," said Renney. "All have been
involved with the Canadian Hockey Association, in different ways, for
several years."

Subject: fundraising planning
I know the last thing you want to hear about this time of year is
FUNDRAISING. However, now is the best time to plan your 1999-2000
fundraisers, especially if you have a big financial goal. Planning now
will eliminate the task in summer and fall. Plan now and enjoy the
summer! I will be pleased to answer any questions regarding
fundraising, what to look for, pros, cons, etc.

Subject: wih- Hipcheck
I was at a function a few weeks ago and one of the girls from another team
told me that she had seen my picture in a recent edition of Hipcheck- except,
that while the picture was me, the name in the caption was that of our other
goalie. I tried writing to the magazine to first of all, find out if this
info was right, and then see if they could send me a copy and maybe correct
it in the next issue. Could someone who gets the magazine, if you have a
chance, check to see if there was an article recently about Florida hockey
(or something like that)- I'd be the goalie in the Panthers uniform with the
teal/wolf looking helmet and the black pads. Thanks so much!

Subject: WIH - First Goal!
Hey everyone, I just had to mention that I scored my first ice hockey goal on
Sunday, plus an assist. It was only the 2nd game that I played offense in,
and I also got an assist. I've only scored 1 goal in roller hockey in 3
years, so this goals pretty big for me. Unfortunately after a 5-1 lead, our
team let down a little, and the other team caught up to us, but we ended up
with a 6-6 tie, so at least it's a point. And my first ice hockey point
happened to be the same day Gretzky got his last NHL point, which is kinda
cool. Sorry, I just had to brag a little, but hey everyone has to brag at
some point, right?

# 5 (still rather be #29) but hey at least my pointless streak of 36 games
(including ice and roller hockey, of those 14 were on the ice) finally ends.

Way to go Jennie!! You have every right to brag. It's important and a
great confidence booster. Now you have to brag about that first hat
trick! Maybe #5 is your number.
