The concept behind the Spirit Team is to promote a positive and energized environment for the children of CDMHA. By encouraging team work and promoting team spirit, we help our children build strong relationships, give back to their community and work together to achieve a common goal of making the arena a fun place to be. The Spirit Committee wishes to instill that hockey is more than just a “Game”.
For any questions, concerns or details regarding the challenges please email [email protected] . Anyone that wishes to join the committee and help plan events for the children are welcome!
Teams should assign a parent volunteer to help co-ordinate the challenges and act as a liaison for the team. This job is not a difficult one and will help alleviate adding more responsibilities on to the coaches.
The Spirit Team is also planning a Breakfast with Santa on Dec 15, 2018 from 8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. in the McSorley Room of the arena. Santa is due to fly in at 9:00 a.m. Everyone is welcome to attend to enjoy breakfast and let Santa know what is on their wish list! Mark your calendar!
Team spirit is for everyone! Help make a positive and memorable hockey season!
