📣 AGM season is here, and we encourage all parents to take part in the AGM for their local association. These meetings matter. They are where important updates are shared, decisions are made, and the future of our programs continues to take shape.

The strength of our teams and associations depends on all of us, and every parent has a role to play in supporting the growth and development of our hockey community.

🤜 GHA AGM: May 21 at 7:15pm

We want to extend our sincere thanks to Ray Clavette for his dedication, leadership, and many years of service to the Gloucester Rangers.

In his roles as Vice-President of Operations and Equipment Director, Ray has made a lasting contribution to the organization through his hard work, commitment, and steady support behind the scenes. His impact on the Rangers community has been significant, and we are truly grateful for everything he has done over the years.

Thank you, Ray, for your time, your effort, and the care you brought to this role. We wish you all the best in what comes next, and we know many will still enjoy seeing you cruising around the Russell rink on the Zamboni.

Thank you for everything, Ray.

We want to extend our sincere thanks to Jeff Flaro for his dedication, leadership, and passion during his time as President of the Gloucester Rangers.

Over the past six years, Jeff has helped guide the organization through meaningful growth and evolution, always with a strong focus on player development, culture, and creating a positive experience for Rangers families. His commitment to the association and to the players who wear the Rangers jersey has left a lasting impact, and we are grateful for everything he has contributed.

Thank you, Jeff, for your service, your vision, and the heart you brought to this role. We wish you all the best in what comes next.

As we move forward, we also want to welcome Dom Giglietta, GHA VP House League, who will be stepping in as Interim President. We appreciate Dom’s willingness to take on this role and support the association during this transition.

Thank you both for your leadership and commitment to the Rangers community.

Unfortunately, the GHA Board has voted to move forward with one U10 team for the coming season.

We know this is not the outcome many families were hoping for. We did our best to present the data, advocate for our players, and represent the interest we heard from our community. While there was support for our position, it was not enough to change the final decision.

As previously shared, families who registered for U10 and no longer wish to participate under this structure may request a refund of their registration fee.

We understand this news may be disappointing, and we appreciate the support, engagement, and advocacy shown throughout this process.

Congratulations to our U18 AA team!!

One last push, Rangers families! 🏒

Tryout registration is open, and now is the time to register.

Important for U10 families: the April 1 vote relates only to the number of U10 teams for next season. If your player is interested in U10 tryouts, please register now. Registration numbers will help show player interest ahead of that decision.

If the outcome is one U10 team only, families who choose to withdraw from U10 tryouts will be refunded.
