What do my fees cover?

Scholarships and Coaches Subsidies:
Funds are available for players in need of a little help to get to the tournament and for a few elite women to help coach the clinic and teams for the weekend. See attached flyers for details. Note that the deadline for applications is August 15!
Additional information:
We welcome all lady hockey players- newbies, elite, young, old, tall and short. ;) And you don't even have to come with a team! We'll make up potluck teams, which will be lead by elite level women, so you are sure to have a weekend filled with fun, education, and camaraderie.
Saturday evening theme: Halloween (of course!). Fun awards will be given for costumes, best swimsuit, first to enter, best play of the day, and lots of other categories! You can even suggest some new ones!
