Minor Hockey is for the Children
I have posted or emailed this article to parents many times over the years.  I came across it today so had to post it again this season.

Even if you have read it before take 5 minutes and give it another read.  Probably the only article from Steve Simmons ever that I haven't disagreed with at least 3/4 of :)
