Hi Folks,

In the case where a session or sessions are completely full due to numbers confirmation will be made on a first come first serve basis.

GO GET IT!

As a Minor Hockey Association, our main objective is to set the stage for our players to achieve personal development goals while maintaining a strong Association. We strive to be a model organization comprised of dedicated members who are building the foundations for success through the game of hockey. You can take the first step and get involved by expressing your interest to coach a team!

Whether you want to be a head coach, assistant coach or simply help out, we would like to encourage anyone who has interest to apply and/or find out more. You don't need to be the parent of a player to apply and we highly encourage past players to give back.

The rewards of coaching can be immeasurable and Chebucto is committed to fully supporting those that volunteer to the best of our ability at all levels. 

Please use the link below to fill out the expression of interest form.

Hi Chebucto, 

As we begin to ramp up for the 2024-25 season we are sending out our coaching feedback survey to capture any thoughts you may have had during the 2023-24 season. 

Just a reminder that postive feedback is just as important as negative to encourage things we as an organization would like to see broadly. If there was something you or your player(s) particularily liked or thought was well done please let us know.

Link to Coaches Feedback Survey

These results are used to help frame our coaching selections and so are very important.

As always if you feel the need for more specific discussion, don't hesitate to reach out. 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Folks,

I hope everyone is getting ready for the most exciting finish to the NHL season we have had in years! 

Just a reminder of the Spryfield Lions Rink Replacement Project Information session tomorrow 5pm - 8 pm at the Captain William Spry Community Centre - Multipurpose Community Room.

I would encourage our entire hockey community to check it out as I strongly believe our association and the community deserves a first class facility to continue a strong tradition of Chebucto Hockey. 

Even if you can't make the open house everyone in our association should fill out the survey and denote "2 ice surfaces as very important". 

Here is a link to the survery. SRRCPC (google.com)

The deadline for responses is July 21 , 2024 but don't wait!

Go Chebucto! ( ...and Oilers)
