Come See Catamount Hockey!

For the second year Mary Hogan Elementary School is hosting a UVM hockey fundraiser! Community friends can purchase discounted tickets to two different UVM hockey games, one men’s and one women’s this season.  Mary Hogan’s Parent Teacher Organization (MESA) will receive a portion of the proceeds that will go towards enrichment opportunities for students and teacher appreciation events.  The best part is the tickets are all in one section so it is fun to go to a game and be surrounded by local friends!

MESA would love anyone to purchase tickets to these games who loves hockey and we hope to see you there!

MAHA parents, if you have a player on a 10U or 12U team, please do not purchase tickets until you have seen the game schedule. If your player cannot skate because you purchased tickets, the team might be too small to compete!

Bruins Learn to Play Hockey is back!

Bruins Learn to Play is coming back to Middlebury! We know many of you have a kid (or two) who got started through this program. Purchasing a full set of equipment is expensive, finding beginners sessions can be tricky--this program makes it really easy!

MAHA has 30 spots to fill, so if you know of anyone between the age of 5 and 9 (as of October 1) who hasn't participated in this program yet, please direct them to this website and/or our Facebook post.

The program fees of $199 include everything (a full set of brand new equipment and all session fees). See examples of the included equipment below!

The 4 ice sessions will be on Saturdays at 3:30 PM (Oct 12, 19, 26, and Nov 2) at Memorial Sports Center.

If the child wants to continue in a MAHA program throughout the winter, there are discounts available. If not, they still get to keep all equipment and can just play for fun on Vermont ponds this winter!

Link for registration: here.

Please share widely! Thank you.

Neck Guard Policy

On behalf of the MAHA board, effective immediately all MAHA players are required to wear a neck guard during all practices and games. Effective, August 2024, this is also now a USA Hockey requirement for all on-ice 18U participants.  Coaches will ask players to go back to the locker room and get their neck guard if they show up on the ice with out it. Neck guards are a simple way to prevent a potentially life-threatening injury. If you have questions, feel free to reach out to MAHA's Player Safety Coordinator, Krysta Laroche, vsaha@middhockey.com,  or any other board member.

If you are unsure what a neck guard is or where to buy them, we have listed a few options below. Most hockey retailers have them, as well as Play It Again Sports (Blue Mall in South Burlington) and Kevin Smith Sports (Williston Road in South Burlington).

Simple neck guard: Amazon.com : Shock Doctor Ultra 2.0 Neck Guard Black Junior : Sports & Outdoors

Compression shirt with built in neck guard: CCM Neck Guard Long Sleeve Baselayer Top - Youth | Pure Hockey Equipment

If you are curious why this is now becoming a requirement, attached is the link to a recent NPR article about the recent death of a former Pittsburgh Penguins player died after being cut in the neck by a skate. Demand for neck guards soars after hockey player's death : NPR

Happy, safe skating!
