The SCYHA Shot Club is coming back this summer! Don't let them tell you they have nothing to do, have them work on their shot with the 2025 SCYHA Summer Shot Club.
Your skater will participate in the age level they will be for the 2025-26 season
**KICK OFF EVENT CHANGE**
We have to make a change to the ice day and time, but your skater can still start counting their shots now. This is not a mandatory event, but fun to get on the ice with some coaches.
Kick off event will be on June 10th at the MAC 7-8:30pm This ice time will be broken up by age, please ONLY attend the item time that is age appropriate for skater. In the lobby we will have the printed out tracking sheets.
Mites: 7-7:30pm
Squirts: 7:30-8pm
Peewees & Bantams: 8-8:30pm
There will be coaches on the ice to help supervise. This ice time to race around and "play" on the ice. This time is to be used to get shots in and get guidance and correction for making a good shot. If your skater will go on the ice they are required to have: helmet, skates, and gloves.
Shot Club Registration
We are asking that you register your skater as a participant. This will be used in a couple of ways. Biggest one is they must be registered as a participant to be considered for the prizes at the completion of the challenge. Also so we can have a list of kids to reach out to with tips, reminders, and more potential ice events.

Registration Deadline June 15, 2025
Tracking Sheets
Attached you will find your skaters tracking sheets, be sure to print off your age appropriate sheet, or come see us at the kickoff event to pick one up. These sheets are a guideline and tracking tool. Maybe one day your skater can only get 50 shots in and the next day they 150, that is fine.
Submission
Completed and PARENT SIGNED sheets must be turned in by end of day September 5th, to be eligible for the player prize and their name put into the grand prize drawing. Sheets can dropped of at the MAC in Amanda's mail box or emailed. Parents, please help hold your child accountable. This will only help them get better if they put in the work and they are taking quality shots. All completed challenges that meet the requirements will be entered into the drawing that will happen during the SCYHA Fun Day, date September TBD.
**Grand Prize is a new stick of choice from Play It Again**

Great article about how useless a short bench is in youth hockey. Please encourage all to read! "The game is for the kids, all of the kids. Research nationwide tells us that players would rather play on a team that wins 50% of their games than sit on the bench of a championship team with little or no playing time. The bottom line is that all of the kids want to play."
