Re: 2014 movement

EHF dad
Where did everyone go?
2014 parents have now taken over from 2008 as the creepiest parents. Talking or even thinking about where a bunch of 8 year old kids will play hockey is straight up weird.

Re: 2014 movement

Heard about a little kid game blow out between deep voice guy and coach your own kid only guy.

Re: 2014 movement

Simple - BA and IHC get better. Everyone else stay same / get worse.

Re: 2014 movement

Eagles are blowing up.

Eagles are blowing up.
How?

Re: 2014 movement

I know at least 4 kids leaving. I guess running a powerplay for mites was not a big hit with the parents, while flying in out of staters for away tourneys.

I didn’t think BJE offered skills at any level. Or is this the coach expecting the parents to pay more to play more? Like the Lovell “development model”… bahaha… the model being you pay for as many extra skills sessions as you can before or after a practice. Great business model, terrible for child development and the reason the 2014 BA parents think their kids are all going to the show.

Have you had a kid play for BA? That's actually not how it works at all.

Re: 2014 movement / development

Should Lovell just give the skills for free ? No one else does. Plenty of kids on all these 'elite' teams pay for skill sessions outside of their teams. The coaches don't tell them to do it, it's the parents.

Re: 2014 movement / development

Lovell is actually doing free skills Friday nights for girls.

Hearing the 2014 Elite PHC team is losing a lot of kids as well to other organizations this upcoming season.
