Issue #14 Fall 2008 The Busy Life of Hockey Parents Last winter, Dave Albers participated in a Tucker Hockey Adult Level 1 program. After talking to Dave, I discovered that he was a very busy family man. He has four children, of which three are playing hockey with the Bow River Bruins. After he showed up at a session with five kids in tow and laid down the rules for them to stay in one section of the arena stands, I was curious to know more about the busy life of a hockey parent.
