Greetings,

Welcome to the 2024/25 season of the MGHL.  A few things you need to know.

• Our MGHL Directors for this season:

Mike Buell, 8u Director:  We are lucky to have Mike driving and organizing this critical starting point for so many players once again this year.   Mike is always happy to help bring these teams to life so if you have someone in your organization trying to get this off the ground, please reach out to Mike and myself.  We will do all we can to help you.  It’s amazing how many girls stay in the game when they play a season of 8U Hockey.

Brittany Harrison, 10U Director:   Brittany is our new director from Midland.  Her daughter plays on the 10U Midland Hornets, and she is the team manager.  She also has two other children in hockey, so she is obviously all in!  We are happy to onboard Brittany as our new MGHL 10U Director.   

Amanda Vizzini, 12U

Joe McGrail, 14U

Kristyn Dougherty, 16U

John Angerman, 19U

We are fortunate to have 4 returning directors as well.  They all bring a lot of passion, dedication, and professionalism to the league.   A special thanks to Jason Edick for the fantastic job he did the past few years as our 14U Director.   Jason agreed to continue to help the league however possible.   And Michelle Christ always a huge asset as is Daysha Pell, our social media manager.

• Our 2024/25 Kick Off Meeting is Wednesday, August 21st at the Four Points in Novi.  7:30PM.  This central location has served us well the past few seasons so why change a good thing.   We’ll be back with more on the meeting but for the new folks, we hope to see at least a coach or manager from every team in the league attend.  Please save the date.  We share a lot of good information on the league, changes to playing rules and general updates.  But most importantly, it’s a great chance to meet the other coaches and managers in your division and the league for the upcoming season.  We also spend a good amount of time scheduling scrimmages and games for the season.  These breakout sessions will be led by the Division Directors.

• Team registration is open.  We’ve been pleasantly surprised at how many teams have found the registration form on the website already!  But here is the official link.  https://kvha.formstack.com/forms/2024_25_mghl_team_registration 
• Please take 30 seconds to do this as it really helps us (and you) get organized out of the gate.  The most sought-after question we get is ‘what teams are in our division’.   That all comes from this.

 We will update the team list as the registrations come in.   The Directors will provide contact information for all the teams in your division as we close in on the meeting.

See you soon.
