MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD

I would like to acknowledge the homelands and territories we share with Indigenous people across BC and the Yukon. Our goal is to ensure all our hockey programs are inclusive of Indigenous people at all levels while respecting their unique history and culture. This past season has been one of celebration, from our 100th anniversary, to sharing our passion and commitment to hockey as the host of the 2019 IIHF World Junior Championship held in Vancouver and Victoria. This was truly an outstanding event and once again demonstrated the incredible volunteers we have connected to our game. I cannot express enough our appreciation of the efforts of volunteers

who keep our game great everyday.

The Board has invested considerable time in developing a new strategic plan this year that will serve as our beacon. It marks the forward movement of the organization, ensuring we never lose sight of our goals. With your help and dedication, we will work together to re-imagine our delivery system at all levels. Together we can incorporate solid programming tied directly to the Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model, validated by significant data collected by experts in our game. This new direction identifies with the changing landscape of the game; change that has put us on notice to be better and more instep with a fast-paced world that shares information in a completely different way than ever before. We must and will continue to utilize technology to better serve players, while at the same time, lessening the burden for Minor Hockey Associations (MHA) where possible. Never have we had such a significant shift in our ability to exchange information so quickly. Demographics surrounding families is completely different than it was 10 years ago; attempting to remain the same in our approach will only result in falling behind.

Under the direction of our new strategic plan, we have already started to implement changes. Programs such as cross-ice at the Initiation and Novice levels have shown a more rewarding and enjoyable opportunity for our youngest players to develop. This season, the new Atom Pathway from

Hockey Canada will demonstrate a new commitment for Atom age players, based on solid data that directly ties back to the LTAD model. Clearly, we must remain nimble and open to the many challenges our members experience every day. Our new direction drives and challenges us to gain as much data as possible to keep our hockey experience meaningful for everyone involved.Members deserve well organized programs that are affordable and provide a matrix that speaks not only to skill development, but also enjoyment for players. That connection and focus alone will serve to encourage moving forward knowing and ensuring the needs of our athletes are being met. It has been an honor and privilege to serve as the Chair of the Board of this incredible organization. Having the opportunity to travel around our Branch and witness first-hand the unselfish work all of you do is inspiring. I am excited for our future and look forward to working with all of you, from the smallest to largest MHAs in our Branch. Best of luck for an incredible season ahead and a heartfelt thank you for all the great work you do.
