If you plan on attending and speaking at a board meeting please read the following rules on speakin g and attending a public meeting.
I'm excited to announce some important events taking place during the preseason ice this fall.
First, we are welcoming former NHL player and longtime coach Ryan Kraft for his Krafting Champions skating clinic October 2nd, 3rd, and 5th.
Group 1: 5:00-6:00PM U10/Squirts
Group 2: 6:15-7:15PM U12/Peewee
Group 3: 7:30-8:30PM Bantam
Then, on Saturday, October 14, we have Francisco Hockey coming for body contact and concussion prevention clinics (goalies more than welcome for lots of shots). See what they're about HERE
Session 1: U10/Squirts
Video Session: 8-8:50am
On-ice Training: 9-11am
Session 2: U12/Peewee
Video Session: 11:10-12pm
On-ice Training: 12:15-2:15pm
Session 3: Bantam

Both of these great opportunities are available at no cost to players registered for the 2023-24 season at our travel levels (U10/Squirt through Bantam). More details to come throughout the summer.
Before we know it I'll see you at the rink!

I can't wait to see you take your training to the next level!

P.S. It will request that you enter your credit card information into the system. The reason for this is so that the Project Hockey App can save your personal training data. In the future, you can then stay signed up for the program as long as you would like for $11.99/month for life (which is 40% off), after DLYHA's partnership expires at the end of next hockey season.
Calling all DLYHA goalies! Below is a list of goalie camps being offered through Goalie Academy! Please take a look and see if any offered are of any interest to you. If DLYHA has 5 or more goalies sign up for camps we will get a discount. You can sign up on Goalie Academy's website. https://www.thegoalieacademy.com/page/camps
So you thought that wearing the stripes might be fun, or hard work, or frustrating, or the best seat in the house, or a good way to get some extra ice time, a good part-time job, a possible career, or perhaps something else entirely. The fact is, you’d be right on all counts. These are all valid reasons for wanting to serve as a referee, and here at Detroit Lakes Youth Hockey, we have a solid core of experienced officials who can help you get started. While it is a fact that we are all still learning, not all learning needs to be the hard way. To that end, our Mentor Program provides a senior official for you to follow on the ice and to then follow you for the first few games to work on positioning, seeing the ice, making calls, dealing with questions, working with your partner, and all the other things that we are constantly seeking to improve.
If this sounds like a good thing to you, there are a few steps to take to get started.
1. Go to Usahockey.com and click on the Become a Member button. You have probably done this as a player, but
you will need to do it again as an official.
2. Complete the registration process (your registration fee gets reimbursed with the first game you officiate!) and then
sign up for a Level One seminar. Our local seminar is on the 18th of Sept, so sign up sooner rather than later.
Space is limited.
3. Get a whistle! Not a basketball whistle. The Acme Thunder and Fox 40 are favorites with hockey officials.
OfficialsWearhouse.com carries them.
4. We have helmet/shield combos and sweaters for you to borrow until you decide you need your own.
5. Black pants are required. Can be warm-up pants or sweat pants. Shin pads and a cup (for males) are highly
recommended. Elbow pads might also be a good thing.
Congratulations!
You’re a part of the hardest working team on the ice!
