| November 18, 2019 NR.083.19 HOCKEY CANADA ANNOUNCES CHANGE TO AGE-DIVISION NAMES Changes to simplify the minor hockey system to go into effect next season CALGARY, Alta. – At its Winter Congress this weekend in Montreal, the Hockey Canada membership approved a regulation change proposed by the board of directors to revise the naming of the age divisions used in minor hockey across Canada. Following the recommendations of a task team, the age divisions will become U7, U9, U11 through to U21, impacting all minor and female hockey programs under the Hockey Canada umbrella. The change was initiated by Hockey Canada and its 13 provincial and territorial members and will be implemented nationally with their input and support for the 2020-21 season. YEAR OF BIRTH AGE ON DEC. 31 AGE DIVISION 2014 and before 6 and under Under-7 (U7) 2012-2013 7-8 Under-9 (U9) 2010-2011 9-10 Under-11 (U11) 2008-2009 11-12 Under-13 (U13) 2006-2007 13-14 Under-15 (U15) 2003-2004-2005 15-16-17 Under-18 (U18) 2000-2001-2002 18-19-20 Under-21 (U21) “We believe everyone should feel welcome in the game and in our on-going effort to make hockey more inclusive, the Members at the Hockey Canada Annual Meeting determined that the names of our age Divisions will change,” said Michael Brind’Amour, chair of the Hockey Canada Board of Directors. “Following a comprehensive review, we believe this change will simplify the system for families who may be new to the game. The new age Division names will be implemented for next season.” For more information on Hockey Canada and its minor hockey programs, please visit HockeyCanada.ca or HockeyCanada.ca/MinorHockey. – 30 – For more information or to be removed from the media contact list, please contact: Katie Macleod Coordinator, Communications Hockey Canada 403.777.4594 [email protected]FacebookTwitterWebsite |

We may only be one week into our Flames season, but that gear is funky! Not only does it stink, but leave it unattended and you can be stuck with mold or mildew growing on it. The odor itself is caused by bacteria growing permeated by the sweat during hockey. These simple steps will help you keep that equipment fresh all year long.
The easiest way to ensure the smell doesn’t get really bad is to simply air it out after each practice. Find a space in your house and setup a storage locker like one of our dads did last year.
If you don’t have the space to setup shelving, at least get something you can hang the equipment and let it air out properly. A simple drying rack will do, or a specific hockey rack.
If you are stuck on the road, products like the Ever Bamboo Hockey Gear Deodorizer helps with the apple when you don’t have time to get the back out and air the equipment properly from a hotel.
It’s really that simple. Most of your equipment can be washed in the laundry at home. Some companies offer commercial grade services, but really, just throw it in the wash. Coach Jeremy of howtohockey provides a simple guide for you DIYers.
Got your own secrets to keeping your gear clean, comment on facebook or @ us on twitter with your solutions and you can even include your pictures!
