NORTH OLMSTED HOCKEY CLUB: Welcome

Our mission is to foster, advance, and encourage youth participation in the sport of ice hockey in the City of North Olmsted and its surrounding communities. We are dedicated to conducting and promoting athletic, recreational, and social programs for our member families and the community.  Through a culture of sportsmanship and fair play we strive to provide each youth with proper instruction and opportunities to enjoy the great game of ice hockey.

Hello NOHC Membership and Happy Spring to all!

After another great season of NOHC Hockey I wanted to take this opportunity address the membership and pass on some important information and dates.

First, I would like to sincerely thank each of you for allowing us the opportunity to provide your families with the NOHC hockey experience. As you know our club is made up of volunteers who do their best to provide a quality program where not only your children can develop as hockey players but your families can enjoy the sport. Our board members, coaches, team managers and division directors are committed individuals who do their very best and spend countless hours to insure the best possible experience.

I would also like to congratulate all our teams on a job well done. Sometimes the end of season records don’t always tell the full story for any sports team. I know from watching our teams throughout the season that our players not only developed as hockey players, but as young athletes and individuals. You should all be very proud of your children’s accomplishments. And a big tip of the Eagle’s wing to Coach Henley’s squirt 1 team and coach Free's Squirt 3 team. Coach Henley’s SQ-1 team dominated their division winning it all and headed into a tough round of play-offs to finish it up with and overtime victory and secure the coveted “2 Banner Season”. Coach Frees SQ-3 team couldn’t have been more of a Cinderella story. Starting off the season with what looked to be “a good learning year” at best, through the commitment of the coaches, players and parents progressed like no other team before and won their division bringing another play-off victory banner to NOHC.

A few important announcements and dates to remember.

Our program will hold its annual meeting on Thursday, April 18^th 7:00pm at the North Olmsted Rec Center. This meeting, as all our monthly meetings are, is open to the membership. We will elect new board members and officers to the NOHC board of trustees and all are welcome to join the meeting. There are many openings and anyone is invited to run for a position.

Below this message are the tryout dates for the 2013-2014 season. Be sure to mark your calendars and have your players attend. As in past years, we will conduct tryouts for the Squirt, Peewee and Bantam levels in the spring and the Mite level in the fall. (Dates/Times TBA)

Again, on behalf of the NOHC Board of Trustee’s, I would like to thank you for participating in our program and hope that we can continue to provide you and your families with the ultimate hockey experience.

Have an enjoyable summer!
