1. DIVERSIFIED COACHING CLINIC

Attention all volunteers and coaches! On Friday, June 23, members of the USA National sled hockey coaching program will be hosting a Diversified Coaching Clinic at the Super Rink in Blaine.  While it will include many elements of the sled program, it is open and appropriate for ALL diversified hockey coaches -- and Minnesota Hockey will reimburse your cost!  

This is a great opportunity for our coaches plus volunteers who do not currently coach but are interested in coaching.

You must be registered with the USA Hockey for the 2023-24 season in order to attend.  For more information, along with an email to pre-register for the event, please click here:   https://www.minnesotahockey.org/news_article/show/1274959 

For reimbursement:  Forward your receipt, along with your mailing address, to Toni Gillen, MN Diversified Hockey Director at:  agillen1968@gmail.com.  All questions regarding this program can also be directed to Toni at the same email address.

2. SUMMER CLINICS

MSH is offering Summer Hockey Clinics for Special Hockey registered players. These are skill based, skating, passing, and shooting drills. Each session might end with some sort of a game, but more than likely will not be a typical scrimmage. 

MSH has been working hard to find sponsors for these clinics to make them even more special.  All players that register by June 25th will receive a jersey in time for the Lakeville clinic.  Players who register between June 26th and September 3rd will receive a jersey for the St. Louis Park clinic.  The cost of the jersey is $40 (collected at registration time).  The jersey will be really cool and well worth the $40 along with a lot of quality ice time!  The jerseys are handed out at the clinic.  

If you are interested or know anyone interested in sponsoring these clinics please contact Scott Foley (952-738-2600).

Lakeville Clinic at Ames Arena (Rink 2) - Sundays, July 30th - August 27th at 3:00.

St. Louis Park Clinic at SLP Rec Center (West Rink) - Sundays, October 1st - 29th at 10:30 or 11:30 depending on Skill Level.  October 8th ice time is at 10:00 or 11:00 (East Rink).

With every registration of this type you will receive a confirmation email once your registration is complete.  If you do not receive a confirmation email you did not complete the registration correctly.
