Welcome to BGYHA 2017-18!  Here is the practice schedule that will be in place for this season.  We have made just a couple of changes due to the fact that our Mites will be a very large group!  So as to have an appropriate number of players on the ice we will be splitting the mites in two groups for practice.  The first 2 weeks of practice we will divide up based on your players last name.  Letters A-L will be group 1 and then M-Z will be group 2.  Teams will be announced after the second week of practice and the practice time will be divided up by team from that point through the end of the season.  We will rotate the later group of teams so your player will have the earlier time one night and the later time on the other night.  The only other practice time concern will be a few Thursday nights on weekends where the Falcons have home games.  The ice arena has to allow the visiting team time on Thursday for practice and we are working VERY closely with them to make the impact as minimal as possible.  BGYHA does not have control of the ice or times, but we do have a good working relationship with them and they are doing their best to adjust the time for the visiting team so it lessens or eliminates the impact to your players practice time.  Currently, there are 5 dates that are impacted but we continue to reduce that number with the ice arena's ongoing efforts.  We will notify everyone the weeks that are impacted if we are not able to eliminate all of them.  We are looking forward to a great season of hockey in Bowling Green and look forward to seeing all of your players on the ice!
