DeDication in Honour of matt cHambers

In 1967 Matt Chambers moved from the Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland to Labrador City in search of employment. From that time forward he dedicated himself to his community, volunteering countless hours not only to minor hockey but to many service groups and organizations in that town. Matt first got involved with Minor Hockey when his 5 year old son joined the game. He had a passion for the game that kept him involved at both the local and provincial levels for 25 years. He had a true caring for the youth in his community and he made it his goal to help better the minor hockey association in Labrador West while providing a safe and fun environment for the children to play the game.

During his tenure with the Labrador West Minor Hockey Association Matt held many positions both as an executive member and as part of many coaching staffs. During his time, he was the driving force behind Major Midget Hockey in the region and assumed the position of AAA coordinator. Matt did not only dedicate his time to the elite hockey programs but rather was a big proponent of the growth and development of hockey and believed strongly in its grass roots.

In 1997, Matt decided to leave the Labrador West Minor Hockey Association and dedicate his time and efforts at the provincial level. He was elected as the Northern Area Director for Hockey Newfoundland and Labrador’s Minor Council holding this position for 10 years. During his time on Minor Council he invested countless hours into improving the game throughout the province and worked tirelessly for the associations in the Northern Zone.

He won many awards locally and provincially, most notably:

2007 – Awarded Hockey Newfoundland and Labrador’s meritorious award 2008 - Awarded the Gold Stick award for 10 years service on the provincial board of directors.

Matt’s dedication to the sport was exemplary. His work made hockey a better game for the children in Labrador and the Province as a whole. He truly has helped the growth and development of hockey and is to be commended for his service.

cHairPerson’s messaGe

On behalf of Hockey NL’s Minor Council let me take this opportunity to welcome you to the 2014-2015 minor hockey season. This season, I’m sure, will prove to be an exciting and rewarding one for all young hockey players in our province. Our programs continue to evolve and improve to meet the needs of our players, and these changes would certainly not be possible without the dedication of our volunteers that give so much to ensure our programs success. Collectively it is our responsibility and challenge to deliver a first rate hockey program to our players. Inherent in this process is the requirment for periodic changes to our thinking and format. Do not fear change; rather embrace it. Forward thinking is necessary for the development of our game as it allows for a competitive sport and a safe and fun environment for players to experience the game.

“THE BIGGER YOU DREAM, THE BIGGER YOU PLAY” is this year’s minor hockey slogan. In hockey, as in life, there is a tendency to dream. Don’t cut yourself short. Set your sights high and strive for your goals. This motto will help you as a player, coach, official, at work, as a student or with life in general. Follow a plan, believe in yourself and good things will happen. It should be our goal to develop not only good players, coaches and officials but good people. We have a great game, with exceptional people, believe in yourself and others will too.

Good luck to all associations with your upcoming programs. As chairperson of minor council I look forward to working with you all for another minor hockey season in an attempt to foster and promote the game. Continue to put emphasis on skill development, embrace change and work hard to improve the game for all participants.

In closing I wish to thank all of you for your continued support. To the volunteers, who are the cornerstone of our programs, your dedication is unparalleled. To the players, I hope you all have an enjoyable season. Dream big and play big, but most of all, have a season full of memorable experiences and success.

PresiDent’s messaGe

On behalf of myself and the Officers of Hockey NL, I would like to welcome all players and coaches to the 2014-2015 hockey season as we prepare for an exciting season ahead.

This year I am excited as we are in the first year of our new AAA Peewee and AAA Bantam League. We wish all teams’ great success both on and off the ice.

The Breakaway Foundation had a successful season last year and we are expecting more of our membership to take advantage of this program.

This season my message to all is to focus on team work. I have seen over the last three years of my presidency many challenges that we need to face together as a team. I think it is important we all work together for this great game.

It is always an exciting time within Hockey NL as we strive to offer the kids of this province the best possible experience within the sport of hockey. These initiatives, of course, are not possible without the ongoing support of the many volunteers who work daily to execute them.

To all the players, coaches, officials and off-ice volunteers a very sincere thank you. I look forward to working with you throughout this season.

Regards, Jack LeePresident, Hockey NL

tHanks to tHe voLunteers

Minor Hockey Week is a week set aside by Hockey NL to celebrate and to show appreciation to those who make participation in Canada’s National Sport possible for our children. The least we can do is pay public tribute to the men and women who spend so many hours organizing and operating the many leagues and games for our children.

Hockey provides healthy exercise that will improve the body, discipline the mind, as well as teach co-operation, team play and respect for rules.

Hockey NL urges everyone, particularly parents, to join the coaches, managers and organizers to make sure that everyone has fun. Let’s put fun back into hockey. It’s a game not a war. The right attitudes are just as important as the physical skills.

Thank You

Kids Help Phone is a Canadian and world leader, known for its expertise and continuous innovation as Canada’s only 24/7 professional counselling and information service for young people. Since 1989, it has offered kids, teens, and young adults a critical lifeline of hope and support through its free, anonymous service, which research shows significantly improves youth mental health.

In Newfoundland and Labrador young people reach out to Kids Help Phone’s counsellors from every corner of the province via phone, Live Chat, and web post, and also benefit from its database of local youth-serving programs.

Kids Help Phone raises the majority of its revenue from individuals, foundations, corporations, and community fundraising; thanks to its generous donors, it can be there – always – for the 6.5 million young people in Canada between five and 20, in English and in French.

femaLe cHairPerson’s messaGe

On behalf of Hockey NL and the Female Committee, I welcome all players, coaches, parents and volunteers to the 2014-2015 hockey season. This year started off with Caroline Ouellette’s Camp for female players. Charline Labonte was the goalie coach. Both these athletes are four time Gold Medal Olympic winners. Julie Chu from the United States was also in attendance. It was an exceptional experience for all who participated. There was a great response with interest for it to be offered again next year. This year we will once again have a mega tournament in Under 12 and for the first time there will be an Under 15 Mega tournament. Under 20 will be the usual format of A, B, C and D divisions. Our regional teams will once again compete for the right to represent NL at the Bantam and Midget Atlantic Championships. NL will host the Bantam Atlantics Easter weekend. Once again I encourage players to send your team picture to be posted on the Hockey NL web site. If you have a story about a player or team that you would like to share please forward it to me at ( [email protected] ). We will send out a female newsletter once a month if enough material is submitted. A sincere thank you to the many volunteers who promote the female game. Your efforts to grow the sport is certainly appreciated.

I wish all players an enjoyable season and remember that hard work pays off. Respect your coaches and team-mates and have fun.

To play the game is good, To win is better, But to love the game is best of all Author Unknown

note #3: When the suspension carries a time frame (i.e. 7 days), the player will serve the full 7 days. For example, if an infraction occurs during a game on Saturday, the player cannot return until the following Sunday. In no case can the day on which the infraction occurred be counted as a day of suspension.

80

note #4: Players who are under suspension are suspended from all Hockey NL activities for the duration of their suspension including practices. Notwithstanding this, the President of Hockey NL has the discretion to allow a player the permission to practice for the purpose of team try-outs and his decision is final and binding.

note #5: In all cases where the infractions result in bodily injury, the suspensions will be of a longer duration.

note #6: Players receiving Gross Misconducts or Match Penalties are not eligible to play until the suspension has been ruled on.

note #7: A high school player who is also a registered minor or junior hockey player, who receives a suspension for a Gross Misconduct or Match Penalty from HNL, must serve his suspension by applying games and/or time allotment in the division of which the infraction occurred, however, the player is suspended from all HNL sanctioned games until the suspension is served.

note #8: A high school player who is also a registered minor or junior hockey player, who receives a suspension for all other infractions, must serve his suspension by applying games and/or time allotment in the division of which the infraction occurred however, the player is not suspended from all other HNL sanctioned games.

note #10: Team/League/Association Presidents have the authority to give out a more severe suspension. All suspensions must be reported to the Provincial Office by the President.

note #11: The above procedures would also allow for a player to first make an appeal to his/her League and further appeal to the HNL Appeals Committee, if necessary. All appeals to the HNL Appeals Committee must be made by the player in writing within 14 days of the suspension and this appeal must be accompanied with a $200.00 appeal fee made payable to Hockey Newfoundland and Labrador. $100.00 will be refundable if you are successful with your appeal.

sanctioninG GuiDeLines

on-ice activities

1. Any activity which is a part of a Hockey NL member association/league/team’s program will be sanctioned. This may include fall/spring conditioning and evaluation camps. Any association/league/team having invitational or exhibition tournaments and jamborees must first receive the sanction of the Hockey NL and will be required to complete a Tournament Sanction Request Form. The tournament sanctioning must be requested through the Hockey NL office three weeks prior to the commencement of the tournament. Hockey NL does not sanction Summer Hockey with the exception of the Hockey NL Program of Excellence and “AAA” Midget Training Camps. Summer hockey is considered to be played between May 1 and August 1.

2. TOURNAMENT POLICIES: “Within the jurisdiction of Hockey NL, tournament sanctioning, coordination and operation cannot be subcontracted, transferred or conveyed in any form or manner to a non-member or private enterprise entity.”

3. Hockey NL member teams must be competing against other Hockey NL or HC member teams in order to have coverage. Coverage will not be extended to Hockey NL member teams who participate against non Hockey NL/HC member teams. Hockey NL member teams competing against IIHF or USA hockey member teams in events sanctioned by the appropriate body will be covered. (See HC Regulation D, Exhibition Games and Tours).

4. One exception would be for “benefit games”. “Benefit Games” in which an Hockey NL member team is playing a game against a non Hockey NL/HC member team in a fund-raising situation, the Hockey NL member team would be covered, however, coverage would not be extended to the non member team. An example of this would be the minor hockey dads playing against a local team in a fund-raising or charity game. Hockey NL may have the ability to sanction this form of activity at their discretion.

5. In cases where the Hockey NL has granted “overage” status to a minor hockey player, the player and those he or she competes against will be covered.

6. Hockey NL may sanction fall or spring hockey schools if they are conducted by a member association and if all proceeds go back to the local minor hockey association.

7. Hockey NL may sanction Skate-a-thons if involving registered members.

8. Hockey NL will sanction dry land training if all participants are registered members and the training has the sanctioning of the association/league/team.

83

9. Hockey NL will sanction year end banquets for registered associations/leagues/ teams only.

10. Hockey NL may sanction the following fund-raising activities provided the association/league/team has the appropriate certification from the Provincial Government’s Lotteries Licensing Board:

1. Chocolate bar sales 2. Bottle drives 3. Bingo 4. Car wash 5. Ticket sales 6. Chuck a puck

Any association/league/team holding special events or fundraising activities will be required to complete a Special Event Request Form for possible sanctioning. The special event sanctioning must be requested through the Hockey NL office three weeks prior to the commencement of the event.

tie breaking sequence

two teams tiedIf two or more teams are tied at the conclusion of a round robin series, then the following procedure will be used to determine the final ranking before the semi-final and final games are played. In the event that teams are tied for a playoff position, the following procedure will apply:1.1 The winner of the round robin game between the two tied teams gains the higher position1.2 The team with the most wins in the round robin gains the higher position.1.3 If the two teams are still tied after 1.1 and 1.2 have been applied then the team with the best goal average gains the higher position. The goal average of a team is to be determined in the following manner.

Total number of goals for divided by the total number of goals for and against.Note: All round robin games are included

Example: 10 Goals For 4 Goals Against

Percentage 10 10+4

Note: The higher percentage gains the higher position.1.4 If the two teams are still tied after 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 have been applied, the team with the least number of minutes in penalties throughout all of the round robin games gains the higher position.1.5 If the two teams are still tied after 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 have been applied ,then the team which scored the first goal in the game between the tied teams gains the higher position.

1.6 If the two teams are still tied after 1.2, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 have been applied, a single coin toss will determine which team gains the higher position.

three or more teams tiedNote: The three-team tiebreaker is used to determine the seedling of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd seed. If any step in the tiebreaker only seeds one team, that team assumes that position. The three-team tiebreaker will continue to determine the seeding of the two remaining teams. At no time will teams using this formula go back to the two-team tiebreaker.2. If three or more teams are tied, the point record established in the game among

the tied teams only will be used as the first tie breaking formula in deciding which team(s) shall advance.

2.1 The team with the most wins would gain the highest position.2.2 If the teams are still tied after 2.1 has been applied, then the team with the best

goal average gains the highest position. The goal average of a team is to be determined in the following manner: total number of goals for divided by total number of goals for and against.

Note: All round robin games are includedExample: 10 Goals for 4 Goals Against

Percentage 10

10 + 4

If there are still teams tied, they go to the next step. They do not go back to the “Two Team Tie Breaker”.Example:A. Team A - .714 = 1 seed – Advances Team B - .500 = 3 seed – Does not Advance Team C - . 650 = 2 seed – AdvancesB. Team A - .714 = 1 seed – Advances Team B - .500 = Still tied with team C – go to next step 2.3 Team C - .500 = Still tied with team B – go to next step 2.3C. Team A - .650 = Still tied with team B – go to next step 2.3 Team B - .650 = Still tied with team A – go to next step 2.3 Team C - .500 = Does not advance2.3 If teams are still tied after 2.1 and 2.2 the team(s) with the fewest goals against

(all round robin games played) will gain the highest position.2.4 If teams are still tied after 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 the team(s) with the most goals for

(all round robin games played) will gain the highest position(s).2.5 If teams are still tied after 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 have been applied, the team

to qualify would be the team(s) that received the least number of minutes in penalties throughout all the round robin games.
