We invite you to view the Tribute to Don, and join us in thanking him for his leadership over the many years building WSMHA to its current membership and strength and contribution in the community, representing over 900 members, 70 teams, and well over 350 volunteers.

On the other side of the debate are the hockey purists and parents who believe that half-ice hockey is not “real hockey”.For the advocates of a small ice surface for small kids, the main issue is proportion. A full ice surface is simply too big for younger kids.

It’s that time of year when the arenas are abuzz with
rumours about who will be coaching which team next season. Let’s try to
put some of those rumours to rest- at least for a few more weeks:
No coaches have been
selected for next season. Anyone suggesting otherwise is either
mis-informed or telling a big fib.
All coach candidates
(returning and new) must apply, and the deadline for applications is February
11.
All coach candidates
(returning and new) must go through the interview process to be considered
by the Coach Selection Committee, and interviews will not be scheduled to
begin before February 13.
