A NOTE FROM COACH WHERLEY

To The JV Players:  Just a note to thank you for this past season.  Your
enthusiasm for the sport of hockey is fun to see and be around.  Throughout
the season each of you as players really grew in your development of a team
and playing as a team.  This allowed each of you to improve instead of relying
upon one or two highly skilled individuals to carry the burden.  This
improvement in your skills will allow each of you to make even larger
contributions to your teams in coming years.  As coaches we hope you each
recognized your improvement and the hard work you put in to attain that
improvement.  Thank you for all of your efforts and dedication to the goals and
objectives we as coaches set forth for you.  

To The JV Parents:  As always, I could not ask for a more supportive group of
parents who allow me to share time with their kids teaching them the game of
hockey and the life lessons that go along with sports.  I appreciate you
entrusting your child to me during the season.  I know each season is a major
investment for you and your families in terms of time, energy, and of course
money.  I hope that you and your child always get the type of return and
satisfaction you desire as you look back upon the season and what it held for
each of you.  As head coach I truly enjoy sharing time with this group of young
men laughing, learning, and of course playing hockey!
