GYHA is excited to offer a new summer hockey development program. This summer, you can take advantage of fun, meaningful, developmental hockey to help you improve your skills, get some great exercise, play with friends, and most of all - HAVE FUN!
We developed this program to give families a cost effective alternative to traditional 'summer hockey', which typically offers some games but not a lot of development. This program has prescribed goals for each session along with scrimmages and emphasis on having fun throughout the summer. Download the document below for more details. If you are interested, please e-mail the webmaster at: webmaster@gardinerhockey.com.
**UPDATE - A sign up form has now been posted. Click on the second document posted below. This packet of forms is very similar to the one we use for our regular season program and can be filled out electronically or by hand. If you choose to fill it out electronically, be sure to use the "save as" feature to save your completed form to your computer. You can then e-mail this completed form to our Registrar, Nicole Sacre here: registrar@gardinerhockey.com. If you would prefer to print them out, you may do so and mail the completed forms and payment of $79 per player to Gardiner Youth Hockey, P.O. Box 291, Gardiner, ME 04345.
We will be accepting applications on a first come, first served basis through May 17, so don't delay!
GYHA is proud to announce that they will be looking to offer a 18U Midget program this fall. The details are still being worked out, but we have put together an outline of what we are hoping to offer. If this is something you think you might be interested in, please e-mail Michele at: president@gardinerhockey.com
More updates will be posted here as they become available so stay tuned!
Gardiner PeeWees - NH Spring Classic Champions - 2012-2013
The Gardiner Youth Hockey PeeWees capped of their amazing season by winning the championship at the NH Spring Classic in Hooksett, NH. They faced tough competition from teams hailing form MA, NY and NH. They emerged victorious after a tough battle against the Keene Cobras in the final game, winning by a score of 5-3.
More important than the trophies, medals, and accolades, however, is the WAY this special team won their games - as a TEAM. Throughout the season they worked exceptionally hard in practices and in games to continually improve, sharpen their skills and come together as a cohesive unit. Every player on the team contributed in a very significant way, and the end result was a team that skated with energy and confidence. Even in games where they got behind in the score, they maintained their focus and battled back with the confidence that only comes from their trust in one another. Congratulations Gardiner PeeWees!
Gardiner PeeWees - 2013 Bangor Friendship Tournament Champions!
Continuing its winning ways, the Gardiner Youth Hockey PeeWees are Champions once again. This time they come away with the big trophy at the Bangor Friendship Tournament. The team battled some tough teams and even had to come from behind in two games, but ultimately emerged victorious in all 5 games it played. Way to go PeeWees!
The Gardiner Bantams won first place in the Central Zone Tournament this weekend, earning them a 1st seed entrance from our zone to the State Tournament next weekend. Their path to the championship included 2 wins and a tie during the round robin games followed by a 4-0 win in the championship game. Way to go Tigers! Good luck next weeekend!
