U12 Select Tryout Invite - Update
What a weekend to see so many players out there enjoying hockey again after these past House League assessments. It’s great to see that the U12 age group has such a high number of players returning year after year which coincides with the many great coaches and parents we have to keep them engaged, having fun, and coming back for more.


Just an update about invites to the Select tryouts for this coming weekend. The plan is that I will be sending out email invites tomorrow (update - invites have been sent, please also check your junk mail) to a limited number of players based on the assessments we just had (30 players and 4 goalies). This will be sent to the email address provided when registering.

I do want to note though, that it is not easy to decide who to invite and not, especially with the sheer numbers and all the very talented and skilled players for this age group. If you were not invited to continue on with the Select tryouts, I do want to wish you all a successful season ahead, continue to push hard, learn, and develop to be the best hockey player that you want to be, and keep it fun! 

See ya all at the rink!

Thanks - Coach Luke

Sponsors
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.
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada
Our friends at Toyota continue to support Kitchener Minor Hockey by returning as a House League Gold Sponsor yet again for this season. Toyota also sponsors the Toyota Challenge featuring teams from the region in competition and the opportunity to travel to Japan. The Toyota Hockey Challenge consists of round robin competition amongst top Kitchener, Waterloo & Cambridge teams, with the top two teams then competing in a one-game show down that will determine the team to represent the Tri-Cities in a once-in-a-lifetime cultural exchange to Japan. The team that wins the Toyota Hockey Challenge will travel to Hokkaido, Japan during March Break for a cultural exchange with the Tomakomai Allstars, all expenses paid by TMMC. Thanks Toyota!
SCHERER Chevrolet Buick GMC
SCHERER CHEVROLET BUICK GMC has grown to be one of the most successful automotive dealerships in the country and as such is a PROUD 3RD YEAR sponsor of KMHA. Please stop by their dealership, located at 1225 COURTLAND AVE. E, KITCHENER, and speak with one of their representatives today or call at 519-893-8888.
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.
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!
