Thank you to all players who came out this year - we had a very talented group of players to choose from and wish we could've taken you all. However...congratulations to all the players who made the team, as mentioned, some tough decisions were made by the coaches but we are excited to have you all this year!

Please note that tomorrow (Sunday, May 11th) we will have a short practice from 11am- (approx.)1150am at Sportsworld. This practice will be a light skate to get to know each other and loosen up from a long week of tryouts! We ask everyone (players, and parents if possible) to be there at 10am for a short parent/player meeting before practice. We just want to introduce ourselves and give a run down of expectations going into the fall. We will not be diving into details or logistics of the upcoming season as KMHA encourages these discussions to not take place now, but instead closer to the season. Thus, we plan to do an organized parent meeting at the end of summer, around August, to discuss staffing, other volunteer roles, budget, tournaments etc. We will also plan players meetings at that time. We ask for your support in making tomorrow a light-hearted, introductions focused meeting and a fun first skate going into summer break. 

Thank you all for your respect and patience during the stressful time of tryouts! We appreciate you all and look forward to the season ahead! 

Please reach out if you have any questions. 

Best and see you tomorrow morning,

Coach Jack Carscadden ([email protected]) (517-775-0114 *this is a long distance number so please call Mya if needed)

Sponsors
Scotiabank
Scotiabank returns as a PLATINUM LEVEL SPONSOR for yet another season. They have five Kitchener branches to serve you. Last season, local Scotiabank managers were instrumental in arranging to feature our Peewee Bisons on Hockey Night in Canada! Thanks Scotiabank!
Sun Life Kids In Gear
Donna's Kids is pleased to partner again for 2019/2020 season with Sun Life and their Kids In Gear program. Kitchener Minor Hockey Association, as part of their mandate, provides financial support for children in this community who, without our assistance, would not be afforded the opportunity to participate in organized hockey in the City of Kitchener. Monies for this cause have been donated by various individuals and organizations over the years, however with increasing demands we have the need to provide further support for this program. One hundred per cent of the funds raised by KIDS IN GEAR are channelled directly to purchase equipment for children.
Timbits
The Timbits Minor Sports Program is a community-oriented sponsorship program for children four to eight years old who participate in local house league sports teams. The program's philosophy is not based on winning or losing - but on learning a new sport, making new friends, and just taking time out to be a kid. Tim Hortons currently sponsors over 200,000 children who play on hockey, soccer, lacrosse, t-ball, baseball and ringette teams across Canada and in the United States. Each sponsored team is supplied with Timbits Minor Sports jerseys or T-shirts. Timbits hockey teams are often given the opportunity to play on-ice scrimmages during intermissions at Junior, American Hockey League (AHL) and National Hockey League (NHL) games and do so with our own KITCHENER JR. A RANGERS. Tim Horton's once again sponsor's our 40 entry level HL teams this year.
The Kitchener Rangers
Our hometown heros, The Kitchener Rangers, return for the 19th year as the official sponsor of ALL of KMHA's Lady Ranger & Jr. Ranger teams! Thanks for your support & LET'S GO RANGERS! Through a partnership agreement with Sunlife of Canada, the Rangers also support DONNA'S KIDS through their KIDS IN GEAR CAMPAIGN!

KMHA is proud to have McDonald's Canada in our stable of sponsors. This year, McDonald's is once again sponsoring our entire Boys Atom divions under their intiative, atoMc Hockey.
