The Major Atom atoMc Orange House League Team was very excited to be drawn for this great event.
The boys were very excited, and had lots of fun!
The Kitchener Rangers Hockey Club was proud to put on this great event - Hockey Day in Rangers Nation, which took place on Sunday, November 15, 2015 at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium.
Now in its sixth year, Hockey Day in Rangers Nation aims to engage the region’s 10-year-old Major Atom House League hockey players, providing them the opportunity to participate in an authentic Rangers Game Day Experience.
Fourteen house league teams from around the Waterloo Region got to experience what it was like to be part of the Kitchener Rangers and play a full game against a team from outside of their own league.
Hockey Day in Rangers Nation is an annual event that is offered at no cost to the participants. The team also had the opportunity to purchase group tickets for the Rangers’ home game against the Erie Otters that evening.
When the team arrived on Hockey Day in Rangers Nation, they were greeted by their very own dressing room attendant. The game-day experience continued with pre-game introductions and full use of The Aud’s new state of the art centre ice video board.
Following their game, each player receives a gift package and post-game meal. Later that day, players got to re-live their day as Hockey Day highlights were broadcast on the video scoreboard as the Rangers play host to Erie.
Hockey Day in Rangers Nation is limited to 14 teams that were selected through a lottery process.
Exclusive Rangers game day experience included:
— Player gift package
— 1 hour game
— Announcer/Video scoreclock
— Introductions/Highlights
— National anthem
— Dressing room attendant
— Post game meal
— Highlight video during the Rangers vs. Otters game that evening on the centre ice video board
