POLL: Youth Hockey Info Wants Your Opinion

[Youth Hockey Info]

The DVHL is asking for your opinion on the league website. Are you in favor of delaying and condensing the season, or moving forward as is with safety protocols in place?

Honest question. Why would anybody who paid thousands for their kids to play want the season cut in half? We already know the hazards. Some people are really really stupid. Just stay home if you are that afraid to come out of your cocoon.

F-Wolf!

It’s not about healthcare it’s about politics and who wins the whitehouse!

I vote with our kids! They need to play or you will have a generation of depressed kids!

Please explain how this helps the democrats win.

So, someone who may have a different opinion than yours is stupid? Makes sense.

This has nothing to do with politics whatsoever. If someone feels that it is safe to send their kid to a rink filled with other kids, unprotected, then that’s fine. That’s their decision. If someone does not feel comfortable with that, that’s also their decision. Where do the politics come in? I’m lost.

TOTALLY POLITICAL! QUARANTINES ARE FOR SICK NOT HEALTHY!

I was wondering the same thing! Why are people voting to start in January if they signed their kid up to play? It makes no sense.

Currently the governor has made a recommendation, not a mandate. Our family votes to move forward with the season, but to do so in a smart manner.

So far we’ve been at two rinks, each with their own protocols.  Each with acceptable protocols.  Where I have concern is with people choosing to not follow them.  Parents sneaking back in the rink to watch their player; players, coaches, or parents not wearing masks/barely wearing masks; or, for the rinks that allow an adult to tie skates, parents not exiting promptly, but hanging out.

We want hockey, but not doing so safely, and not respecting rinks and organizations that have safe mandates will ultimately end the season.  My husband coaches two teams and I manage them. Coaches managing the players comes with the territory, but the shady way that some families are complying will eventually snowball.  Please don’t make us not want to volunteer our precious time, by thwarting safety guidelines.

In conclusion, continue with hockey, but do so in a manner that maintains the health and safety of the players, coaches, and their extended families. Follow safety protocols so that hockey can continue.
