Welcome to the 2025-2026 U11 House League Season!

Dear U11 House League Players, Parents, and Guardians,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 2025-2026 U11 hockey season with KMHA! Whether you’re a returning player or new to our community, we’re thrilled to have you with us. Our goal is to ensure every player has a fun, rewarding, and skill-building season. As always, we will sort players into A, B, or C divisions to ensure balanced and competitive teams. To kick things off, we’ll have four ice times before evaluations begin to get those skates moving, followed by formal evaluations to place players appropriately.

A Bit About Me

My name is Meghan, and I’m excited to serve as your U11 Convenor this season. I’m a proud hockey mom to Lizzy (13) and AJ (8), and we share our home with two cats and my supportive husband, Joe, a former KMHA coach and player. My journey with KMHA began when Lizzy was in IP (U7), where I volunteered as the team treasurer and caught the “hockey bug.” While Lizzy eventually pursued her passion for gymnastics, AJ joined hockey four years ago, and I dove back in as a trainer for his U7 team. Since then, I’ve taken on roles as Trainer, Assistant Coach, and Goalie Coach for U9 over the past two years. This season, I’m thrilled to expand my horizons as the U11 Convenor. I look forward to meeting new members and reconnecting with familiar ones at the rink!

I am also delighted to formally welcome Jackie Bedard as my co-convenor for the U11HL season. Jackie has generously agreed to join me in supporting all aspects of our U11 activities, and I hope you will extend the same warm welcome to her as you have to me. With her extensive hockey expertise, Jackie brings invaluable knowledge and enthusiasm to our group.

Volunteer Opportunities

Our season’s success depends on the incredible support of our volunteers. We’ll soon share opportunities for you to get involved, so please keep an eye on your inbox for volunteer sign-up details. Whether it’s helping on the bench, managing team logistics, or supporting off-ice activities, every contribution makes a difference. Thank you in advance for stepping up to make this season amazing for our kids!

Getting Ready for the Season

As we gear up, please ensure your child is ready with their equipment and enthusiasm. We’re excited to see everyone at the rink for those first ice times. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for being part of the KMHA family. Here’s to a fantastic 2025-2026 season filled with growth, teamwork, and plenty of hockey fun!

See you at the rink,
Coach Meg and Jackie
U11 Convenor, KMHA
