Congratulations to the winners of the NVMHA Hockey Pool. This was a tough pool to win and the leaders changed numerous times.

Due to lower participation than anticipated, we changed the winnings to 50/50 instead of cancelling the pool.

The winners are as follows:

1st – Nelson Dal Silva $500
2nd – Manda Sayers $350
3rd – Ariel Maliwanag $250
4th – Leanne Taylor $150
5th – Lori Nobes $50
6th – Michael Helfrich $50
Last – Nelson Da Silva $30

Thank you.

Sponsorship Director NVMHA

Registration for the 2012-13 season is open April 9 to May 21, 2012. See the registration link in the left column of the home page.

The NVMHA Board of Directors recently reviewed the fee structure for all divisions based on:

1. Current Budget and cost per player
2. Fee comparison to like associations
3. Length of time since a fee increase
4. 2012/13 revenue projections

After careful assessment of the above criteria the NVMHA Board of Directors has approved a $100.00 per player increase in player registration fees for 2012-13 Hockey season.

For more on this, including a table with the new fees for all levels, check the document linked below, called Fee increases – April 2012.

The document Fee increases - April 2012 was attached to this post.
