LAHA MEMBERS UPDATE ON TOPIC,

Soon as I sent this out, our Scheduler, Rob Van Winkle, wrote me and said he had already been disussing this with another person at Taos and our Coaches.  These dates overlap with our Schools Spring Break.  The coaches asked their team member parents and decided that there would not be enough players for any one team to participate in the Coyote Classic this year.

Hopefully next year.

Here is a message from Anthony Archuleta from the Taos Hockey Association about the Coyote Classic Tournament in March.

Hi Bob. This is Anthony Archuleta up in Taos. I would like to take this opportunity to invite your organization and all of its teams to this year’s Coyote Classic Tournaments. They will be held March 14,15 (Bantam Weekend). And March 21, 22 (Mite, Squirt and Bantam Weekend). If you could please pass along this invitation to all of your teams, I would greatly appreciate it!  If you have any questions regarding the Coyote Classic please feel free to contact me at 575-770-1336.

The Year End Tournament of the Rio Grand High School Hockey League is set to be played in Santa Fe at the Genoveva Chavez Community Center with varsity playing first in two weeks.  Soon as we find out the final draw we will let you know.

The schedules are below.  Let's go out and support the Hilltoppers.

VARSITY  February 28-March 1

JV March 6-8

The Land of Enchantment Amateur Hockey Association (LOEAHA) is proud to announce the 2020 New Mexico Player Selection Camp (NMPSC) to be held Sunday March 22, 2020 at The Outpost Ice Arenas in Albuquerque. The PSC is an opportunity for New Mexico resident boys with birth years 2003 - 2006 to demonstrate their abilities and compete for the state allocated roster spots for forwards, defenseman, and goalies to attend advanced USA Hockey Regional & District Player Development Camps (PDC).

This year the NMPSC evaluation process will consist of high-tempo skill based on-ice drills, and an organized scrimmage. Evaluators are recruited from multiple organizations, with a wide range of hockey knowledge, to select the most appropriate players to represent New Mexico at their age level.

The NMPSC schedule is as follows:

            Check in opens: 8:00am

            Players dressed and ready for brief orientation at 8:45am (Parents welcome to attend.) 

            On-Ice Session: 9:00am to 10:15am

            Light lunch and healthy snacks provided: 1hr break between sessions.

            On-Ice Session/Scrimmage: 11:15am to 12:45pm

Players will be notified of their results by email shortly after the camp.

The cost to participate in the NMPSC is $45   ($60 after March 16^th or at the door. Please register early!)

Please be aware, should you be selected to attend the District or National camps, there are additional costs associated with those camps. Though the extra cost can be burdensome, the benefits of these camps include:

• On-ice participation with NCAA College,  Junior,  AAA,  Prep  School,  USAH National and, sometimes, NHL personnel
• Opportunity to measure themselves against the best players in the district
• Exposure to scouts and higher-level teams and coaching
• Possible selection to the gender and birth year specific National USA Hockey National Camps

Currently the Rocky Mountain Boys PDC for birth years 2003-2005 is scheduled to take place May 8-11 in Dallas Tx.

Dates for Rocky Mountain PDC for 2006 birth years are YTBD but are typically held mid-June in Co Springs, CO.

We look forward to seeing hockey players from all over New Mexico at the camp on March 22^nd!
