In order to better evaluate the 2000-01 season and to adequately plan for next year, the Buckeye Travel Hockey League Board asks that the following survey be completed by all members.

A paper copy of the survey is being distributed to Association Presidents, Team Managers, Coaches, Association BTHL Representatives, Parents and Players. If you submit this form online you can discard (or better yet, pass on) the paper copy you receive in the mail.

The BTHL is your league and will only continue to grow and thrive with your help. Thank you in advance for taking the time to complete this survey.
