Please click on the “register online” link on the left side of the home page to register your son(s) / daughter(s). The tryout dates and times are detailed below in this note for you to refer to.

As you are probably aware, if your son(s) / daughter(s) are trying out for a travel team, they will be trying out for certain levels of play based on their age. The following will help you understand what session your child should attend if they are interested in playing travel hockey…

Regardless of ability, all skaters trying out for a travel team should plan on attending the “A” tryouts (i.e the 1^st session by level) right from the beginning. If your son(s) / daughter(s) are cut during the initial sessions, they will return for continued evaluation in the 2^nd and/or final session posted.

All Tryouts will be at the Northford Ice Pavilion

To Register, Click on "Association" in the top Menu Bar and then choose "Register Online" from the left hand list of buttons.

NEW! - Academic Achievement Awards

by posted 02/23/2010

As many of you know, at our Annual Banquet, the Wallingford Hawks present various awards to the teams and players. At this year’s Banquet (Aqua Turf, April 1, 2010), we will begin a new award program, to recognize our players who excel in their academic pursuits. One “Academic Achievement Award” will be given to one player from each travel team. This award is separate from, and in addition to, the one Hawks Scholarship that is also awarded at the Banquet.

The Application has been posted to our "Documents" page. To have your son or daughter considered for this award, please print the Application, fill it out, and return the signed Application to: Jeffrey J. Holley, 1864 Old Waterbury Road, Cheshire, CT 06410.

The deadline for Applications is March 10, 2010. ALL Applications must be delivered to Mr. Holley by March 10, 2010. This is a real deadline; there will be no Applications accepted after March 10th.

This Award is being instituted so that we can recognize the outstanding academic work that our players do, despite the time commitments associated with travel hockey. All Applications will be individually reviewed by an independent committee appointed by the Board of Directors. The Committee will look at the player’s grade average, and will also take into account additional academic achievements/involvement such as, but not limited to: advanced placement classes; community service; participation in an academically gifted program; academic competitions (spelling, math or geography bees, for example); writing competitions; student council or student mentoring work; and similar items.

The Application Form should be used as a guideline. Please feel free to use additional sheets of paper if needed. Each player, and one parent/guardian, must sign their Applications. The decisions of the Committee will be based upon their sole and exclusive discretion, and will be final. All submitted Applications shall be kept confidential and become the property of the Board.

Mite A's Place 2nd in State Final

by posted 02/22/2010

For those of you who were in Newington yesterday (2/21), you witnessed a great performance by our Mite A team as they played in their state championship game. For those that were not able to make it, you missed quite a show.

Congratulations to our Mite A’s and their accomplishments this weekend. They went 3-0-1 to advance to yesterdays final. It was a hard fought battle just to get to the afternoon game. The excitement of the tournament for this team was a 3-2 overtime win on Sunday morning against a very good Greenwich Skate Club team. That win at 9:45 AM on Sunday matched them up with West Hartford at 2:45 PM where they eventually lost 2-1 to place 2^nd in their division.

Congratulations to the Mite A’s for a very successful showing in their season ending tournament…!

Reminder Hawks 2010 Banquet April 1st 2010

by posted 02/09/2010

All,
It's getting close to the end of another season. One of our final events is the Annual Banquet which will be held at Aqua Turf on April 1st. All TRAVEL team players and Head Coaches or one Coach from each Travel team are free as indicated on the Banquet form.

Please print out the form and get your count and check in ASAP or by the deadline. Due to the number of people coming and the fact that we need to get a count in to Aqua Turf , we will not be able to accept anyone at the door. Please send in your payment and completed form by March 21st.

Click here for Banquet Form.!!!

As always, we will once again get team tables clustered together and due to the volume of people we will be assigning tables. If you have any special requests, please indicate them on the banquet form or attach a note and we'll do everything possible to meet your requests. However, if your request can't be met, please don't re-arrange tables and add/remove chairs from tables. It causes alot of confusion for us as well as the Aqua Turf Staff. Once Dinner is over, you can feel free to move wherever you want.

All,
Here's a great cause coming up next spring!!

Central Connecticut Youth Hockey Assoc's (CCYHA - Jacob's team) Hockey Day for a Cause.

CCYHA along with the Boston Bruins Alumni Team, The Hartfod Wolfpack and the Travis Roy Foundation are planning a fundraising event for Saturday March 27, 2010 at the XL Center in Hartford.

The Travis Roy Foundation was established to help fund research and provide adaptive equipment for spinal cord injury survivors. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Travis Roy Foundation and CCYHA.

The events will kick off with a game between the Boston Bruins Alumni and a team compromised of local coaches and celebrities. Some of the former Bruins faces you might see include Ray Bourque, Brad Park, Terry O'Reilly, and Rick Middleton.

Following the Alumni game, former Boston University player Travis Roy will present a motivational speech about the challenges of successfully overcoming a life altering spinal cord injury.

To top off the day of events the Hartford Wolfpack will be playing in state rival Bridgeport Sound Tigers at 7:00pm. The cost for the day of events is $25.

The purpose of this fundraiser is to help the Travis Roy Foundation in a cause that hits home to all hockey families but more importantly it is to instill in our kids that helping others in need makes you a better person.

Any one interested in purchasing tickets can contact me (Melissa Mohr) at 860-620-9538 or melissamohr@sbcglobal.net.

Reminder!!! Want to Reduce your Skating Fees?

by posted 10/14/2008

Looking for a way to Reduce your skating fees? Get a Corporate Sponsor for the Hawks. Attached is the menu of Corporate Sponsors we are offering as well as the Golf Sponsorships that are available. This year if you get a Corporate Sponsor you get 20% applied towards your skating fees. This means if you get 2 corporate Sponsors at $250 each ($500 total) you can get $100 applied to your skating fees. Also in the attachment is a cover letter that you can distribute or hand out. Jeff Holley and I are the contacts for this, if you get a sponsor, be sure to let us know so we can apply the proper credit and ensure that everything owed to the sponsor is provided.

Remember, this is for Corporate Sponsorships only.
