APPENDIX F 1 BC HOCKEY 2009 – 2010 ANNUAL REPORT PRESIDENT’S REPORT Rick Boekestyn, President BC Hockey Presidents Report This year BC Hockey continues to work with our membership to offer the best in program delivery, as well as develop sound strategies that will help us to grow positively in the future. With the advent of the Olympic Games in Vancouver, pressure was applied to all facets of hockey administration, but I am proud to say we got through it while continuing to meet the needs of our membership. My thanks to all those MHA’s that had to bend a little, but did not break. We were fortunate to hold some National events besides the big show in Feb. which included the Allan Cup, in Fort St. John, the U18 Women’s Nationals in Surrey, as well as the Western Bantam Championships in Burnaby, and the Western Jr. B Championship Keystone Cup in Kamloops. My thanks to the Host Committee’s of these events, as all proved to be very successful. On the home front we continue to work on our Strategic Plan in order to help set direction, and stay true to our Mission statement. We have added a marketing initiative this year, and hired a firm to explore marketing opportunities’ within BC Hockey We hope to report many sponsorship partnerships in the future. In that regard we are pleased to report the renewal of a sponsorship agreement with the Western Hockey League, which increases the monetary support of not only the MML but also shows a substantial increase, financially in our High Performance Program. We also are pleased to report that we have renewed a commitment to the BCHL to help promote and support the league, and look to new initiatives in the future. We have worked hard to deliver programming in a simpler, smoother form. The bumps that we experienced last year with on-line registration, Criminal Record Checks, and the move to Respect in Sport were corrected, and allowed us to deliver most clinics in a timely fashion. We still however had to deal with coaches that missed deadlines for post task submission, as well as some officials not completing CRC, but these numbers are decreasing. Nationally, we successfully lobbied Hockey Canada to increase financial support for the HCR in this year’s Hockey Canada Budget. This will insure that this technology continues to move forward. BC Hockey continues to be a Major influence at the National table, and will continue in the future. Hockey Canada passed a motion at the Semi Annual in November, that will effect Junior A in Canada. We along with the other Western Branches, as well as our respective Jr A Leagues, are working together to re-adjust this motion, as we feel the outcome would be detrimental to Junior A Hockey in Canada. I will update you on results at the AGM in Prince George, as the Hockey Canada AGM is to be held in Montreal in May. My thanks to those Executive members who sit on Hockey Canada Councils for your hard work this year. As you may know Randy Henderson had to step down in November as Officer at Large for personal reasons. His portfolio was distributed amongst the other Officers, particularly Al Berg, and I thank them for doing double duty. Your Executive has had to make some tough decisions this past year, some popular, some not. We are bound by our regulations and as we strive to make the game better we must not loose site of the fact that rules are in place for a reason. Some need to be changed for the betterment of the game, some don’t. But as we meet here in Prince George to deliberate changes to the game, I would ask that you do so as hockey people. Making hockey decisions that will affect hockey players, coaches, and officials. There has been an overwhelming trend over the last few years, that in our haste to 2 BC HOCKEY 2009 – 2010 ANNUAL REPORT recruit volunteers for the game, we do so at the risk of filling positions, instead of looking for hockey volunteers with a hockey background. As a result, we find it difficult to focus on what’s good for the game. As I said last year, passion is a good thing, as long as it is directed in the positive. Let’s stay positive and make good decisions. As you all know I have decided to let my name stand this year for President. My decision is based solely on the fact that at this time I believe that BC Hockey needs strong, experienced leadership. We are faced with the possibility of having our President, Vice President, and all our officer positions, filled by new people. This coupled with the fact that a couple of candidates have decided to bypass our normal process for gaining experience through an important path, that allows an individual the ability to grow as they move through the various Executive Committee positions. That puts BC Hockey at an extreme disadvantage. For these reasons I would encourage you all to attend this years AGM in Prince George. Take the time to educate yourselves on what each candidate for the various positions brings to that position, and then make an informative choice, based on fact, not fiction. In summary, I would like to thank all those volunteers within our organization that not only volunteer for BC Hockey, but managed to do double duty during the Olympic Winter Games to showcase our Province, and the game that we hold in such great esteem. Your commitment and overwhelming support of not only our game, but the gambit of sports that make up the Olympic Games, made the rest of us proud to be from British Columbia. You truly had a part in making Vancouver 2010 the best

  • Mcdonald's Challenger Celebrity Golf Classic Letterhead
    P.O. Box 30031, RPO Parkgate, North Vancouver, B.C. V7H 2Y3 www.challengergolf.ca Dear Golfer, This is a special year for the McDonald’s Challenger Celebrity Golf Classic as we move towards a major milestone in fund raising. After 16 years, we are on the verge of passing the One Million Dollar mark this year which is such a special moment for us after all these years. Currently we have raised over $940,000 for various children’s charities in BC while creating “A Million Memories” for the kids. We would like to invite you to join us in Celebrating “A Million Memories” on Tuesday, June 13, 2017 at the Meadow Gardens Golf Club, in Pitt Meadows. The McDonalds Challenger Celebrity Golf Classic is the largest annual fund raiser for Challenger Baseball in BC. The Challenger Baseball program gives children with cognitive or physical disabilities, the opportunity to enjoy all the benefits of playing organized baseball “In a league … On a team … In a uniform”, just like their able-bodied peers, while creating “A Million Memories.” It is because of your participation, donations and generous sponsorships that we are able to celebrate “A Million Memories” with all proceeds staying here in BC going to support various children’s charities across the province. The main beneficiary is the BC Challenger Baseball program, but we also support the Canucks for Kids Fund, Ronald McDonald House, and the Vancouver Canadians Baseball Foundation. This event is well known as a fun filled day of “scramble” golf and socializing, while raising funds for some great charities.

Again, I stress how pleased I am to work with a team striving to improve our organization and game. The Board recognizes that hockey is a passion with high expectations from our country. The mandatory Initiation Program is experiencing some concern in a few areas; however, I have been impressed with the progress and attitude of the Members actively involved in promoting the value of this program. It is pleasant to receive compliments supporting the Board for this initiative. It is difficult to be critical of a program that works on improvement and develops skills as well as incorporating fun in the game.

  • History of BC Hockey Organized Hockey in British Columbia Dates
    2016-2017 History of BC Hockey History of BC Hockey Organized hockey in British Columbia dates back to the turn of the twentieth century, though the first amateur hockey league was actually organized under the jurisdiction of the BC Amateur Athletic Union in 1912. Seven years later, the British Columbia Hockey Association was formed at a meeting held at the Daily Province Newspaper offices in Vancouver on February 9, 1919. The Secretary-Treasurer of the Saskatchewan Amateur Hockey Association was in attendance and assisted in the organizing of the Association, and John Oliver, Premier of British Columbia, was named Honorary President. A constitution modeled after the Saskatchewan Amateur Hockey Association was adopted, and the first annual meeting of the Association was held on November 15, 1919 with 16 delegates in attendance. Notable from that first AGM was the defeat of a resolution to adopt the CAHA playing rules, due to the fact that the rules called for teams to play with six players. As there were only three artificial ice arenas at the time in British Columbia, it was felt that seven players a side would give the players more ice time. From these humble beginnings, the Organization enjoyed steady growth and soon began to serve a leadership role for hockey at the provincial and national levels, a role that continues to the present day. Initially, senior hockey was the only division under the jurisdiction of the BCAHA, and for over forty years the assessment of senior hockey gates would serve as the prime source of revenue for the Association.

  • New Geographies of Elite Hockey Player Production in the Neoliberal Age
    NEW GEOGRAPHIES OF ELITE HOCKEY PLAYER PRODUCTION IN THE NEOLIBERAL AGE STEFAN DECOSSE A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN GEOGRAPHY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO June 2015 © Stefan Decosse, 2015 Abstract Neoliberal forms of governance have impacted business, international trade, investment, finance, taxation and many other aspects of economic life since the 1970s. At its heart, neoliberalism puts emphasis on the market, not just in business but also in sport and in many other aspects of life. Private capital has increasingly gained access to the finance and provision of public services. An example of this process is the recent proliferation in privately operated/owned ice rinks in British Columbia. Private ice rinks constitute 46% of all ice rink construction in BC since 1990 and are largely located in urban regions. Concurrently, High Performance Training Companies (HPTCs), operating outside the auspices of Hockey Canada, have capitalized on the influx of private ice rinks and have begun providing services at a cost to prospective young hockey players. The following thesis utilizes a case study of BC to demonstrate how the deepening commodification of elite hockey in BC during the neoliberal age has created new geographies of elite hockey player production. ii Acknowledgements I am indebted to my thesis supervisor, Dr. Glen Norcliffe. Thank you for your patience, critical eye, and the care with which you reviewed my work. Through your guidance and support I was able to carve out a project true to my interests and reflective of my passion.
