Let the
Games Begin!!
Welcome
players, parents and volunteers to our CVHA's 2022/23 hockey season.
Great to be
back to some form of normalcy, as we embark on a full slate of hockey
programming, events and activities for the season.
Now that our
CVHA House League Skills & Drills Sessions and our Vaughan Rangers Competitive
Program Tryouts have concluded, we are pleased and excited about playing hockey
again.
We are
grateful to see an increase in enrollment numbers within the program for this
season and we are hopeful that the return to the hockey as we know it, will be
a wonderful experience for all.
Thank you to the over 400 Volunteers (team officials, delegates, convenors and executives) within our program, committed to creating a welcoming and positive environment conducive for the kids to learn the skills to play this game and be the best they can be. There are numerous benefits to participating in community based programing and the number one takeaway, is the creating friendships and memories to last a lifetime.
We are looking forward to hosting the many events planned for this season to include; Our Vaughan Rangers Tournaments, Hockey Day In Vaughan, Volunteer Appreciation Night, House-League Championship Day, Banquets, etc…
I would like to take this opportunity and acknowledge and thank, Paola Visentin and Nina Katzman for their 25 and 20 years (respectively) of service and dedicated commitment to our program. Their support, understanding and passion for our minor hockey program, has been second to none. We are truly grateful and appreciative to have had the opportunity to employ such caring and passionate individuals. Their contributions and attributes that contributed to the past success of this program, we can only strive to maintain such level of service in the future. For the many experiences and fond memories created, we share a heartfelt ….THANK YOU !!
We would like to officially acknowledge and congratulate Lucio Tersigni in his new role as the CVHA Office Manager. Also, welcome to Nadia DeFranco, who is assisting our program in the part time office administrator position. As we await the fulltime Administration position to be filled, Nina has offered to assist us through the transition period, for which we are grateful. Thank you to all, for their efforts and contributions during this transition period.
Coming off a couple seasons of challenges and uncertainties, I would like to thank our executive board for their efforts, commitment, dedication and perseverance in assuring us that this 2022/23 season will be an enjoyable and memorable experience for all. Board Members Ron Romano, Joe DiMaria, Anthony Magagna, Jason Cohn, Tony Spagnuolo, Emilio Carinci, Gianni De Franco and Laurie Morris.
Wishing our House-League and Vaughan Rangers Players/Parents/Coaches-Volunteers a very enjoyable, competitive, memorable hockey season.
