Dear USA Hockey Annual Meeting attendees,

A compilation of all legislation submitted by April 1, 2025, for changes to the USA Hockey Bylaws, Rules and Regulations, Programs and Philosophies, Policies, Duties and Responsibilities, and Affiliate Agreement have been uploaded to the USA Hockey website at www.usahockey.com/annualmeeting. This legislation will be reviewed and discussed in appropriate Councils, Committees and Sections, and then reviewed and amendments considered at the meeting of the USA Hockey Congress on June 7, 2025.

Regards,
Casey Jorgensen

To All Mid-American District Hockey Associations,
Here we go again; hope you are ready!

While some of you are finishing up your regular season, others have already completed playoffs, and some of us are just beginning preparations for the playoff season, it is a good time to think about what you may need help with for next season!

The Mid-Am District wants to help you grow recreational hockey in your area.  Please take a few minutes to review the application attached to see how to make that happen through the Roger Sharrer “Grow Hockey” Award!  This is not meant to help individual player / team skill development, it is to help get new players into your program.

There are some examples on the first page of the application of frequently requested items, but we also encourage new methods like advertising with through the local rinks and/or schools, flyers and yard signs, purchasing goalie gear or referee sweaters to lend to players, promotional give aways like foam pucks to pass out at a community event or parade, etc.  Maybe even hold a try goalie for free event or set up a goalie station in your try hockey for free for all to try goalie for 15 minutes.  You get the picture….encouraging new players, goalies and referees, not developing faster/more accurate shots, better save percentages or improving other existing skills.

The application is attached to this email, don’t forget to submit your W-9 form with it!  It will also be posted on the Mid-Am website for you.

The timeline is:
April 25th - deadline to submit your RSA application

June -winners announced during the Mid-Am Annual meeting

September 15th - last day to submit your receipts or purchase orders for your approved items

October - checks in the mail!

We need your help to continue to grow youth hockey for your programs within the Mid-Am District - begin by filling out an application and don’t forget the association’s W-9 form!

Thank you for your assistance to grow the game we love,
