If you choose option 2 and you are not able to re-schedule, the game will be recorded as a forfeit loss to the "home" team. If you are able to re-schedule it will be at the "visitors" rink with expenses paid by the "offending" team.
2. Scoresheets. Some teams still have not mailed in scoresheets. Please cooperate and try to keep up with them.
3. Those of you that have been sending me scoresheets, thank you. If you're also putting the game#s on, thank you again. This is very helpful and saves me the time of looking it up.
4. We are now about half way through the season and I'm concerned with the number of TBA's we seem to have on our schedule. I'll be in touch with you over the next couple of weeks to get them cleaned up. If you fall into this catagory please make an effort to get the games scheduled.
Included with the patches was flyer reading as follows:
As directed by our Board of Trustees you should apply the league patch on the front right hand shoulder of your game jersey. Please note that this is the opposite side from the "C" or "A" in the case of team captains. You should decide as a team whether you want to do your home or away jersey. Those of you that played in the league last year should have a patch from last year and could put a patch on both home and away. For those of you new to the league, if you'd like to purchase a second patch they are available for $3.00/each. In order to minimize my work I'm going to ask that if you want to order patches please summarize and pay for them as a team.
ie: If 5 players on your team want a second patch send me a check for $15. (Made out to "Buckeye Travel Hockey League").
The number of players using the patches last year was disappointing to say the least. Please make an effort to participate this year. Major tournaments such as Silver Sticks or State Championships are ideal for additional league exposure. The league has expanded nicely in just 2 years and this exposure can only help us continue to grow. The more people that know about us, the more teams we will attract over the years. With the growth experienced this year we were able to separate our "A" and "AA" teams at the Squirt, PeeWee and Bantam age groups. This same growth allowed us to further split our Squirt "A" division geographically. More teams in the league will allow us to continue that trend.
Thanks for your cooperation.

1. Please call ASAP! I've settled into a routine of posting results on Sunday afternoon/evening and if I haven't heard from you, you will hear from me. Actually I'd prefer NOT to call you, it's just that when I post the results I'd like them to be as complete as possible. It just makes my job a little easier and makes the page more meaningful to those of you using it.
2. Make your phone calls brief and concise. "Your name, Game#, Home score, Visiting score [click]". (Plus any game suspensions). Just that brief and in that order. It'll be easier for both you and me and I can assure you I will not be offended. At the point I'm recording all this I'm not concerned with who's playing who, etc. Keep in mind that I'm getting results for over 500 games this season!
3. Use game#s. It saves me looking it up.
4. Please mail your scoresheets on a regular basis. Most of you are cooperating quite nicely, but some of you have yet to send any! We both know who you are. If you have any question whether I've received them you can tell by looking at the age group standings. If the game is listed in bold print, I've got it. If the game is listed in italics print, I don't! I'd rather not have to call to get them and I'd rather not get your whole season in the month of March. Please help.
5. I still need official rosters. There again, you can tell if I've received yours by looking in the Team contacts section. If the USA Hockey Id# is listed with your team info, I've got your roster. If it's not there, I've not received it!
6. Check the results for accuracy. I try not to make errors but we all know it happens.
HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

1. Please call me with game results just as soon as it's convienent. (From the rink immediately following the game would be nice. At home in the evening is probably more realistic). We've had games over 2 weekends now and I've received 1 phone call, all the other results listed were gathered through phone calls generated by me.
2. In your phone call please be brief and to the point.
A typical call should sound like this:
"Joe calling with results for game #174... Home 5... Visitor 2" [click]
That is really all I need (and want!). As the season gets under way I should receive as many as 20 phone calls over a given weekend. I do want to hear from you but at the same time I'd like to minimize my listening time.
3. The game# I'm referring to is the number on your schedule, not the 1st or 2nd time you've played a particular team.
4. I need confirmed schedules signed and returned by a number of teams yet. They are past due, I want them now.
(South Bend, Indy Racers, Fort Wayne; are you reading this?) Please help me out here.
5. I need official rosters (stamped by USA Hockey) from most of you.
6. Please mail copies of your scoresheets a minimum of every 2 weeks.
