TOURNAMENTS

Please contact each tournament director for all tournaments your team is participating in to be sure that they have your contact information and confirm that all dues have been paid to participate in that tournament.

The CCHA Treasurer (treasurer@cchockey.org) can also verify if gate fee is due for your tournaments.

TEAM CONTACT CARDS

Many teams like to use small, compact team contact cards that have Player name and number along with parent cell phone information. The Excel spreadsheet below has 2 options in it. 

  1. Sheet 1 is an all-vertical option.
  2. Combine sheets 2 and 3 to make a second option - print the player side of the card at 100% of normal size and the parent side at 75% of normal size.  Then cut them to match size, marry them and then laminate.

PARENT/TEAM MEETING

At the beginning of the season, please contact teammanagement@cchockey.org to reserve a room at CCC or Victoria Rec Center to hold a Parent/Team Meeting.

Room reservations are for team meetings only - no parties!

  • Chaska Community Center: If you go through the Team Management Coordinator you can book the room for free at CCC. 
  • Victoria Recreation Center: There is a small fee charged back to teams for meeting rooms at VRC.

Parent/Team Meeting topics could include coach expectations for the season, slush fund information, team game duties/needs, team page, team events/service events, etc.
