- There will be 12 players allowed.
- If we have more than 12 registered players we will have a drawing.
- Skaters that played in a previous Da Beauty event may not be eligible.

3. 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. Clinic locations are Lakeville, St. Louis Park and St. Cloud.
Registration for the Lakeville clinic is closed but is still open for St. Cloud and St. Louis Park. Players who register by August 20th will receive a jersey in time for the St. Cloud clinic and players who register by 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.
Lakeville Clinic at Ames Arena (Rink 2) - Sundays, July 30th - August 27th at 3:00.
St. Cloud Clinic at MAC Ice Arena - September 10th at 2:00 - 3:15pm and September 17th at 10:45am - 12:00pm.
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.
