Hello JAHA,

The board has recently voted on an addition to the text to JAHA Rule A.2 regarding late registration. The rule text as voted on reads as follows:

“If a team has fewer players than it began the season with, the team may recruit players outside the tier to join the team. This player would be charged a season fee prorated for any games already played, and not assessed any late fee. This player addition must be approved by the tier representative before registration can occur.”

Some explanation on this rule change is ahead. We as a board walk a fine line between trying to offer proper incentives for players to register on time, and ensuring that teams have a reasonable number of skaters after the season has begun. Players who register late present a large administrative burden on both our registrar and tier representative, so we want to be as encouraging as possible to get players signed up on time. We also want to make sure that it isn’t cost-prohibitive for players who have a legitimately good reason for wanting to register once the season has begun. It’s that second part that we are trying to address with this rule addition.

We are planning to continue to look at our late registration rules and we would request that if you have any feedback on changes that you might like to see to these rules to submit them to us directly at juneauadulthockey@gmail.com. The board will be revisiting this rule change after the 10-day comment period (starting after this email has been sent out), and may be proposing additional changes or modifications to this rule that would be sent out for additional comments.

Thank you,

-Andrew Dimond, JAHA President.

Hello Goalies,

I won’t be at intro tonight as I am travelling for a work conference. I wasn’t able to find any backup coaches so you will be on your own for tonight. For those of you who are rotating between skating out and goalie for these, tonight would be a good night to skate out. For those of you who are goalie only, there will still be ice open. I’ve been told that the intermediate group will be focusing on skating for the first half of the session but will have ample use for goalies in the second half. If you would prefer, you can always set up a net and work on your crease movements/slides by yourself.

See you next week!

-Andrew

Hello Intro Players!

Because of the way our registration program works, it is not clear who signed up as a goalie and who signed up as a skater! As the goalie coach it would be very helpful to know who the goalies I will be working with are so I can design skill appropriate drills for everyone (and possibly seek out help if I have 4-5 goalies like I have in the past). To do this, if you could just shoot a message to my profile (John Dimond – Coach) under the roster, that would be great.

Thanks and I’m looking forward to working with you all! Your coaches have been added to the header section, if you have any questions before then, please feel free to reach out to them before we start!

Thanks,

-Andrew Dimond, Goalie Coach
