Let’s fill the Arena for a day full of exciting games this Saturday, December 14th, in support of our U13AAA team!!!

We are asking as well, that everyone please bring a non Perishable food item to the rink with them that day as well to help them support the Gateway food bank in this time of need.

Thanks in advance for the support

Each week, SMHA will recognize a "Flyer of the Week" based on outstanding performance and contributions, both on and off the ice. This recognition can go to a player or a volunteer, emphasizing the spirit of teamwork and community that makes hockey so special. 

Hockey in our community isn't just about what happens on the ice—it's also about the positive impact we have off the ice.

The Flyer of the Week can be awarded for any of the following reasons:

• On-ice achievements: A game-winning goal, an incredible save, remarkable teamwork, or a standout play.
• Off-ice contributions: A player showing kindness to a teammate, volunteering in the community, or helping create a positive atmosphere for their team.
• Team support: Coaches, staff, or players who go above and beyond to support the team's success and growth.

Who can nominate? Anyone in the SMHA community can submit a nomination—teammates, coaches, team staff, and parents. If you notice someone doing something great, whether it's a big play or a small act of kindness, we want to hear about it!

Let’s celebrate the efforts that make our hockey community great—on the ice and off!

The "Flyer of the Week" will be featured on our Facebook page as well as our website! We will reach out to confirm consent before sharing a player photo on our social media.

"Flyers Memorial Hockey Tournament"

Date: Jan 3rd - 5th, 2025
This tournament is in honor of Flyers who have passed on ahead of us in recent years.
Cpl. Paul Davis | Caelen Lidstone | Andrew Picot | Sgt. Shane Schofield | Rylee Sears

We are currently seeking volunteers to help make this important event a success. Volunteers are needed for both planning leading up to the tournament and for assistance during the event weekend itself. 

Interested in volunteering?
Please contact Blair Cole, our Director of Tournaments, at Tournaments@FlyersHockey.ca for more information or to sign up for a volunteer role.

Our Flyers Memorial tournament means a great deal to the community, the teams attending and our association so we want to ensure it’s the best it can be! Without the support of volunteers, we can't make this tournament the success it has been over the past many years. We truly appreciate any help you can offer!
