MEIFHA 50/50 2022-2023

Given volunteer constraints, at this time we will not be coordinating an association level 50/50 this year. 
 
If someone would like to take it over; our previous coordinator will help onboard.
 
The lotto work effort would include;
 
Obtaining the lottery license 
Setting up the account with raffle box
Meeting up with rafflebox on lotto day to get tickets 
Coordinate social media and people to do the draw on the day 
Compile individual and team level data.
 
Based on previous years results, the work effort is justified for the first two lottos of the year so if someone wanted to take it over, our recommendation would be to offer two between October and December.
 
Thank you,

Annoucing New Pilot Project for 2022-2023

Hello Metro East Inferno Families,
 
 
As we get ready to launch registration for the upcoming 2022-2023 season we wanted to introduce an exciting NEW pilot program.  One of our key mandates from the board is the implementation of a goaltender specific initiative. Goaltenders are essential to the game of hockey and we want to ensure that we at Metro East Inferno cultivate these players while encouraging and supporting them in developing their skills. 
 
In anticipation of a return to a much more normal season, we will emphasize all player and coach development. The player model will focus on positional development, and for the 2022-2023 upcoming season, we will be offering a *50% discounted registration fee for all goaltenders from U11 through U18 for the 2022-23 season. We hope that increased goaltender-specific development sessions and decreased costs will encourage recruitment and sustainability of the goaltender position within Metro East Inferno for years to come.
*Please note:  This initiative will be revisited post-season. Discount applies to registration ONLY. More details to follow soon on the website.

Stay tuned for 2022-2023 Registration Information coming very soon!
