Winter Hockey

Stoughton Hockey is dedicated to growing the sport of hockey. We do this by nurturing your skaters love for the sport with skating/hockey skills as well as showing skaters the importance of being a good teammate. All this is achievable by the hard work the coaches, parents and skaters put into the club.

*We have several Fundraising opportunities throughout the season that can lower your costs.

The board is happy to announce that skater fees will NOT INCREASE for the upcoming 2023 - 2024 season. Inflation has had a major impact on our community but our organization has worked hard to to control costs and want to pass along the financial benefit to our member families.  

“All In” Invoicing Change

For the upcoming season, we will be making slight changes to how our stake fees invoices will be managed. Historically, skater fees covered only ice fees for each skater at each level. Costs for tournament entry fees and jersey rental were collected separately and individually by each team manager. The board received feedback from parents, coaches, and team managers that these “additional fees” were problematic to manage and were viewed as “hidden costs'' especially for new hockey families. This year we will be implementing an “All In” invoicing strategy where the costs for tournament entry fees and jersey rental fees will be included in one “All In” invoice for the season. It is important to emphasize that this does not amount to an increase in fees. The same approximate costs were collected last year for each player at each level. This change only centralizes the money collection process and reduces the administration and logistics required for our team managers and parents. An outline of the schedule for each skater level is listed below.  

Fundraising Credits

Crossbar has incorporated the ability to apply skater fundraising credits directly into the SYHA website. If you have earned and have unapplied fundraising credits from the prior season, these have now been entered into each family's portal by skater. Any credit balances can be used against any future registration. Please feel free to log into the SYHA website and review the credits listed in your skater portal. Email treasurer@stoughtonhockey.com if you have any questions.

Calling for Scholarship Applications

As a club, we are fortunate to have a very healthy scholarship fund. The application process is now open and we are seeking applications for the upcoming season. Please download and complete the scholarship application on the website and submit it to treasurer@stoughtonhockey.com if you wish to apply. This year we will be awarding a limited number of multi-year scholarships due to the generous donation from a local hockey family.

Each SYHA team from U6 up to Bantams is projected and budgeted to attend two tournaments a season.

If a team wants to attend an additional tournament the families of that team would need to pay for that tournament.
