Good morning Team Managers and Coaches,

 If you weren’t at the SGAA Dual Deck Arena yesterday afternoon, you missed some great Championship games. Congratulations to all the teams!

From the board members, have a great spring and summer! See you in the fall.

 

PS – Don’t forget about

The SGAA Dual Decks “Spring Training” Season

SGAA is again hosting a High School Spring League to give teams and coaches to chance to get the jump on next year, and to keep our hockey players “playing hockey”.   Below are listed some facts and basic information about this “Spring Training” season.

1.      League would begin around the week of April 9^th and run until about the end of June.   Teams would only play one game a week.    10 games plus a tournament.   Entry fee is again only $1000 per team.   All games would be at the SGAA DualDeck.

2.      Games would be weeknights at 8:00 or 9:00, maybe some weekend games occasionally, if necessary.  Schedule would be somewhat flexible to accommodate special requests.   Travel distance would be a priority in scheduling.   For example McIntosh’s time request would be given top priority since they have the longest drive, etc.

3.      This is basically your next season’s team (or teams).   All players must be USA Inline registered (which most are already) and play for the school based on the GHRA eligibility requirements.   This means no graduating seniors, but up and coming 8^th graders are OK.     Rosters can have as many as 16 skaters and 3 goalies; we want to be “very flexible” due to vacations, etc.

4.      League would have no “official” affiliation with GHRA but would basically follow the same rules and guidelines.   League would be administered by Tommy Melton and Ronnie Williams.  

6.      Pointstreak MAY be used IF the majority of the teams wanted to spend another $15 per game or $150 for the season.   We have to pay the operator $10 and then pay Pointstreak for the service.   We’ll poll all the teams entering, get a vote, and go with that.   Last year no one really cared about the Pointstreak so we saved that money.

7.      Divisions would be broken up similar to GHRA (AAAA, AAA, etc.) after seeing how many teams we have.   (For example if we only had 10 teams, 2 divisions;    16 teams, 3 divisions, etc.)   But we’ll sort all that out together so it’s best for all teams involved.

8.      Teams will be required to have home/away jerseys just like GHRA regular season.

9.      The emphasis on this season will be to help players improve individual skills and team work, but primarily to LET THE KIDS CONTINUE TO SKATE AND HAVE FUN.  

                  Remember:  No pressure, no whining, and no problems!

OK, I NEED TO KNOW BY APRIL 1 YOUR INTENTIONS!
We’ve got to get rolling to make this happen.   Email me to let me know what YOU THINK your school is going to do.   Either “Yes”, “No”, or “Probably Yes” and how many teams and what “division” you think.    Ronnie Williams at ramadar@aol.com

Sincerely,

Ronnie Williams

Good Friday Afternoon Team Managers and Coaches,
Well we are here, finally!  After all the practices and regular season games, Championship weekend is here!  The board has reviewed every different scenario that would possibly happen to make this Sunday’s schedule happen and then several wrenches have been thrown into the process: 

- Semi-final games not ending until 11:00pm at the Cooler on Saturday night, very late to work the venue schedule and get them out. 

- Our illustrious chairman’s son is graduating from college. 

- A death of a high school friend, with a funeral this weekend. 

- Several school teams in different divisions with the possibility of playing for a State Championship at two different venues. 

With all the above mentioned exceptions, the GHRA Board has decided to move all the Sunday Championship games to the SGAA Dual Deck Arena with the below game times: 

 A thanks for everyone’s understanding.

Sincerely,

We've added a new page to the site! On the left-hand side of the main page, you'll find a new link for a "Scrapbook" page of images taken during the 2006-2007 season that were contributed to the website. 

Congratulations to the 2006-2007 Doug Russell Sportsmanship Award Winners. This annual award is presented to the team in each division that has recieved the least amount of penalty minutes for the entire year. Congratulations!

5A – Lassiter
4A – Brookwood
3A – Walton Gold
2A – Dunwoody
1A – Athens

Good morning team managers and coaches,

The board has had to move several games because of school conflicts.  With those changes the Cooler is completely filled Friday and Saturday and has NO slots available. So several games that should be held at the Cooler, have been moved to SGAA, sorry but it must be done. Please review the updated schedule at the below link:

Sincerely,

AAU and GHRA have worked out a partnership that will allow any GHRA State Champion or Finalist in each division to enter the USA HIGH SCHOOL INLINE HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIPS, May 26-28, 2007, in Anaheim, California.   This is a big step for our League and we should be proud to be invited to the Nationals by AAU.  (USARS) USA Rollersports is the official National Governing Body of Inline Hockey. USARS is recognized by the International Governing Body FIRS as recognized by the IOC and the USOC.

The AAU events sanctioned by USARS lead to the USARS Team USA select tryout camps in the 10u-18u divisions. Invitations can also go to the USARS Junior, 21u, Women & Men's select Team USA tryouts www.teamusajrprospect.com & www.usarollersports.org

Good Afternoon Team Managers and Coaches,

Congratulations to our GHRA All-Stars!  The home teams will wear their dark jerseys and the visiting teams will wear their light jerseys.  All players are invited and encouraged to attend the Skills Competition before the All-Star games with full gear.  Please arrive at least 30 minutes before the competition starts to get dressed and registered!

 Please click on this link to view the All-Star list for all 5 divisions.

Sincerely,

Team Managers and Coaches:

The board has received numerous enquiries concerning the end of the year playoffs.  At this time, here is the scenario: Basically we have two weeks laid out to finish.   We'll hopefully play some first round games during the first week at each venue using team location and common sense for the time and day.   The weekend of March 17-18 will be booked with many games at the Cooler, and some at SGAA.  AARHO is holding their tournament at SGAA that weekend so we might have to work around them a little.  The next Saturday, March 24th will be semis (and maybe some quarterfinals) at both rinks and the Championships on Sunday, March 25.  Bottom line is team placement, venue availability, and team travel time will all be determining factors in laying out the games in the most logical way BUT we really don't know how it's going to fall until we get final standings.   The highest seed in each pairing will play at home which also makes everything up in the air until the final standings.   All the board knows at this time is each team will need to make themselves available those last two weeks, and that their games will probably be on the weekends, but they possibly could have one or two during the weekdays either week.   So there you go, that's the plan.   But as far as a schedule, we won't know until Sunday night or Monday, March 11 or 12.  

Sincerely,

In the past, coaches have nominated players and the Board members made the final decisions on who made the teams. The Board has met and decided this year to allow the coaches to select their team representatives for the skating positions for the All-Star teams. The goalies will be chosen by the number of wins they have achieved by Sunday, February 4^th, 2007. Here is the layout of the All-Star process:

- For All-Star ranking, team positions will be frozen on Sunday, February 4^th, 2007.

- The coaching staffs of the top two teams in each division as of Sunday, February 4^th, 2007, will coach the All-Star teams. The top seed will represent the Home All-Star team and the second seed will represent the Visitor All-Star team.

- On Monday, February 5^th, 2007, the Board will email the frozen standings for representation to the 5 Divisional All-Star Games.

- Coaches will have until Sunday, February 11^th, 2007, to send in their teams representatives for the All-Star games by email only to the Board. If the Board hasn't received a teams list by Sunday, February 11^th, 2007, the Board will choose the players to represent that team.

- On Tuesday, February 12^th, 2007, the 5 Divisional All-Star lists (10 teams) will be placed up on www.ghrahockey.com web site.

- All-Star games will be played the week of February 19^th, 2007, at both the Cooler and SGAA Dual Deck Arena.
