Come out and support your local town hockey program at the Coastal Stars Annual Meeting

When: Tuesday, June 11th, 2013 at 7PM
Location: Marshfield Elks Lodge

The annual meeting includes reports on the years activities, treasurer's report, changes within the board board and an open forum to ask questions of the board on issues that pertain to the town's youth hockey program.  This is a great chance to have your voice heard.  We would love it if each family could send a representative so people can better understand the inner workings of the program.

I would also like to thank the board members whose terms just came to an end.  The board is made up of 100% volunteers.  It is an incredibly hard and time consuming job to serve on the Board of Directors.  A lot of hours and behind the scenes work goes into helping to ensure that the Coastal Stars program continues to operate with integrity and vision towards the future.  So please join me in thanking the following people for their amazingly hard work in helping to improve our program.

Brian Kennedy - Registrar (7 year board member and a great former President)

Sean Kelly - Secretary

Kevin Walker - Ice Coordinator

Paul Fullam - South Shore Conference Representative

Clive Perry-Gore - Webmaster

Rich DeCoste - Equipment Manager

Each one of the above board members was instrumental in helping to continue the strong tradition of Coastal Stars Hockey.

Also please help me in welcoming our *new board (some returning names as well):

Bryan Erikson - President

Tom McGrath - Vice President

Jeff Smith - Treasurer

*Mike Tierney - Assistant Treasurer

*Jennifer Ames - Secretary

Tom Boyd - Athletic Director

The member towns and coach of each team are responsible for the behavior of the spectators from their town. If the spectators get unruly or abusive during a game, it is up to the discretion of the referee to stop the game and determine who is at fault. If it can be determined whom or what town is a fault, they shall forfeit the game. If it cannot be determined who is at fault or it is unsafe to continue the game, it will be stopped and the Disciplinary Committee will make a decision.

Hello Coastal Stars families!  With the hockey season fast approaching I wanted to send out information about some significant changes that are being made within the Coastal Stars organization.  The Coastal Stars organization is always looking for ways in which to better our program.   Our hockey program has received a ton of great feedback from parents, players and coaches.  The feedback has made clear what people feel needs to be improved upon in order to help move the Coastal Stars in a positive direction.  The majority of the feedback we have received is about ice time.  People want consistency, set ice time and 3 sheets of ice per week.  As we move towards the 2012 – 2013 hockey season the Coastal Stars are pleased to announce that we will be giving each team within the Coastal Stars a set practice hour for the year.  This move allows parents, coaches and players to set their schedule well ahead of time instead of constantly moving things around in order to get to hockey.  We, as an organization, have worked hard to make this happen and feel that this step is a huge part of our commitment to better the program moving forward.

Another addition to the program is set hourly skills sessions will be offered to each player.  This year we will be offering skills on Monday nights (5:30 and 6:40 at Hobomock) throughout the season.  The price will be very affordable and well below the industry norm.  You will get top notch instruction from coaches outside the Stars organization.  By offering skills to every player in our organization we are moving towards a more competitive 3 sheets of ice per week.

In addition to these changes we will be also focusing a lot of time and resources on better training our coaching staff.  We will bring in top coaches and representatives from USA Hockey to help mentor and train our coaches throughout the season.

We feel that each player in our program deserves the very best ice time and coaching.  That is why we as a board will continue to work as hard as possible to ensure we are offering the best possible program for your child.  Hockey is a great sport and the Coastal Stars is a great youth hockey program.  We are an organization that offers your child the ability to play with his or her friends in town, at a very affordable price, when compared to competing programs.  We focus on the improvement of each child.  Our duty is to ensure that your child not only improves but has fun.  We will ensure that your child looks forward to coming to the rink each day.  It is with your support that we can continue to make this organization great.  We, as a Board, and myself as the President, welcome any and all feedback.

Thank You for entrusting us with your child.  It is a truly great honor.

Best Regards,

Bryan

Bryan C.D. Erikson
President – Coastal Stars
