First, and most importantly, to the front-line and essential workers who have gone above and beyond around the clock to keep Canadians safe – a simple thank you is not nearly enough for what you have done over the last three months.

Second, to our Members, partners, local hockey associations, volunteers and fans across Canada, thank you for keeping the spirit of hockey alive. Unprecedented times have called for unprecedented efforts at every level of the game.

As provinces and territories phase in a plan to reopen in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, there are questions about when hockey will return, and how it will look when it does.

Hockey Canada and its Members are diligently working on a multifaceted return-to-hockey plan that will happen when, and only when, provincial and territorial governments and health authorities deem it safe to do so.

This plan includes everything from health and safety regulations to communications, seasonal structure, customer engagement and national teams. 

The S.H.A. Hockey Club's annual general meeting will be held on:

Sunday June 21, 2020

7:00PM

The Meeting will be held via "Zoom" or another remote mode

Information will follow

Below are some links to some fun exercises that our young playing members and their siblings may be interested in doing during their time inside. Our friend Greg Schell form Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment has designed these to help keep our players active during this time.

Hello Parents / Guardians,

As I write this note we are hopeful that all our families and their extended families are coping well and staying healthy while practicing social distancing during these trying times.

Your Board of Directors at the S.H.A. Hockey Club (Scarborough Ice Raiders) are attempting to proceed with designing a program that will hopefully help us return to normal for the 2020 / 2021 season for all our playing members. We do realize and certainly agree this is not the time to worry about registering.  At this point in time we have no idea when it will be deemed safe enough for us to meet.

We are in the process of setting up our on-line registration and are investigating the best way to make this easy for both our returning families and new registrants. Although as of now the HCR (Hockey Canada Registry) is available to go live on April 13, 2020 we as an organization have chosen to wait until June 1, 2020 to explore all options available to ease the financial burden upon our families. It is our intention not to have any players turned away that register prior to October 1, 2020.

In regards to 2019 / 2020 Seasonal Awards for our playing members they will be available at the League Office when it is deemed safe enough for us to open and meet. A notice will be sent with dates and times for pickup.

Below is the set registration rates for returning players that takes into account the loss of playing time this past spring and the rates for new players joining our program.

These prices are again designed to provide the same programing as in the past including Skating Skills / Goalie Skills, weekly practices from Initiation though Bantam. Weekly games Under 10 Program and above, scrimmages starting in November for the Initiation Program with the Little Raiders Programming on Saturday mornings.

Any player from our House League Program (2019 / 2020) season that registers with the Scarborough Ice Raiders Competitive Program will also receive the equivalent in discounts for the Competitive Program.

As soon as more information is available, we will forward it to you all, and also post it on our websites.

Sincerely,
Ed Wahl
President
SHA Hockey Club / Scarborough Ice Raiders
