Junior League Coaches NEEDED

Posted by Ali Baggott at Mar 15, 2014 5:04PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO OTHER TEAM MATES/PLAYERS, OTHER COACHES, PARENTS:

I am trying to round up some more coaches for the Junior League which begins on April 4-5, 2014 with all games and practices happening at UVIC. The league is really well structured and all the coaching plans are done for you with room for you to modify as you need. Any time you can spare is good even if it means only practice or only game day for one or two age groups! You don’t have to be a hockey connoisseur to be a coach. There are great parents that help manage the kids, players who can demo and show skills and experienced coaches. We need all three and that means YOU!

Please respond if you are available to help/commit again this year with the below schedule

Kindies (Sunday 9-10 am)
U8 Girls (Sunday 9-10 am)
U10 Girls (Sunday 10:15-11:15am & Wed 6:15-7:15pm)
U12 Girls (Sunday 11:30-12:30pm & Thurs 6:15-7:15pm)
U13 Girls (Sunday 12:45-1:45pm & Thurs 7:30-8:30pm)
U15 Girls (Sunday 2-3pm & Wed 7:30-8:30pm)
U18 Girls (Tues 7:30-9pm)

Mandatory coaches meeting:
Wed., April 2 @ 7pm at UVic OR
Thurs., April 3 @ 7pm at UVi
