A new place to talk about minor hockey in North America & Around the World. Jump in to the Minor Hockey Talk forum and discuss everything about Hockey in Canada & Hockey in the USA
Cleaned it up a bit for you:
Removed tournaments & exhibition games.
Regular season records so far this year:
AA = 34-68-11 (35.0% win %)
A = 34-57-13 (38.9% win %)
B/BB = 60-32-9 (63.9% win %)
Yikes, nice work around data above. Is Aurora moving into a BB/B centre? Basically, surviving on kids dropping from AA/A to win games/tournaments? This is not development and very much 'cheats' the system.
Yes, BB is the highest form of competitive hockey that any child should be playing. Kids who are able to play at a super high level of any sport should really be asking their parents to look in the mirror. That’s like telling your child you have the expectation they will go to university and become something like a lawyer, a doctor or god forbid a business owner. We need to show our players it’s ok to be a B player, and to enjoy a simple happy life. This is the way. Too much ice time and excessive coaching in hockey is toxic.
ahahahahahahaahaha definitely sounds like a B parent. this troll is entertaining as hell.
I think your sarcasm meter is broken.
Please look for our fearless leaders out in the arenas this weekend. Our jackets now say “Aurora is the place to B”.

Here are the facts:
All Teams Record 23/24 Season: 345-536-105 (39% win %)
All Teams Record 24/25 Season: 188-208-46 (47.5% win %)
Up in all important metrics including fundraising, community involvement, registration. volunteers.
Bottom line, on the right trajectory.

With open borders is AMHA expecting a full contingent of AA/A/BB teams next season? I would think lots of opportunity to recruit from Newmarket, RH etc. The question is .. can AMHA add teams or is there a 'freeze' on the number of teams to this year given Open Borders.

If a coach with a poor reputation is appointed, it’s likely the team will disband.

Got new jackets again? What happened to the grey ones?
Unfortunately grease stains from fast food and melting ice cream are difficult to get out.
What you are saying is 100% true. Board members of associations should be finding, attracting, developing and keeping good coaches.
In reality, they are/should be picking the best candidate who applied. I'm not sure how involved you are with your association but I can tell you it's very difficult these days getting volunteers and you will take anyone who can pass the VSC and take the HC training.
Throughout the year, board members should be engaging with parents/coaches/kids/volunteers, etc to see if there are other coaching options out there and available. The good coaches don't usually move organizations once they find a good one.
With open borders, you may stumble upon some new coaches but be wary of why they are moving organizations.
At the end of the day, if you run an association that people want to come to, you will find good coaches easily.
This is exactly how it is executed with AMHA. Our Board is out there, watching games, talking to parents, talking to coaches, talking to kids, recruiting the next wave of volunteers that our true leaders in making Tigers GREAT as Tony would say. Coach interview list is extensive to ensure we set every tyke, house league and Rep team for an incredible minor hockey experience that will include championships at the Rep level.
This is the biggest crock of shyte I've ever heard. The only the board members are doing, is having expensive dinners on the parents' dime.
Who cares, it’s Aurora.
umm geez maybe the parents in Aurora care dumbass....take your trolling ass back to what ever shyte hole you crawled out from.
Aww did your little iddy biddy feelings get hurt? Aurora has no talent and anyone half good plays elsewhere, everyone knows that! Have another beer, hick.
Sorry, if Aurora folk are hicks, why are you, a seemingly non Aurora resident,loser-ass on this page? Guaranteed our houses are worth more than your bomba-clot shithole shack. Go back to your home centre, trailer trash.

So what happens now, do we have a town hall meeting where we tell the association publicly all of the ways they have negatively affected our families? Or is there like a spokesperson that will read off letters for us? Do we leave our coaches jackets in the lobby of ACC? Just curious how this works.

Go play in the G… so much better
I will tell you how this works .. we get our teams motivated in the back half of this year to win championships. We win championships, coupled with our excellent coaches, there will be more than enough demand for our association in 25/26

Dude, give it a rest. We get it, you are involved heavily with the association and are blind to see the reality of the situation. You gotta take a step back and understand why you association is losing/going to lose players and why you are not as successful as you think you are.
A good association starts right at the top with the president, setting the tone and finding and developing good people around them which will trickle down to your convenors and coaches.
I don't really care about win/loss records. It's all about creating an atmosphere where everyone (players and parents) wants to come to the rink. It's all about developing players and being competitive.

Exactly. And to your point, this year our association will be presenting our president with the ontario minor hockey president of the year award, as voted by the amha exec. We only had one member vote against, and as a show of our unity and inclusivity we will force their child to play house league next year.
