Do you have your neck laceration protection? This has been a requirement for SYHA for a long time. It was also announced that these are REQUIRED for ALL USA Hockey events for JVIP programs. Players will not be allowed on the ice if they are not wearing their neck guards or protection shirts. This includes Stick & Pucks, Drop Ins (for players under 18) and high school hockey! So please make sure we are following this policy when on the ice.
