SCRHL VLOG #19 - Grant’s away this week, so he’s left this week’s VLOG in my trusted, professional hands 🪲 🧃 Happy Halloween this week and see you on the ice 🧊- Showtime! 🥅🏒

The South Calgary Recreational Hockey League Inc (SCRHL) is looking for additional referees to expand our officiating roster for Friday and Saturday evening games in 2025. What does the SCRHL offer compared to other adult recreational hockey leagues in the city that are refereed and timekept? • All adult Friday & Saturday evening games are in South Calgary at Trico Centre, Cardel Rec South, and Great Plains Recreation Centre with two referees and a timekeeper. If you live in South Calgary, it’s very convenient as a side hustle / part-time evening job / hobby. • Pay is $70 per referee per 70-minute game and referees are paid on the last day of each month. • The games in the January to April 2025 period that require coverage start between 9:00 PM and 10:30PM at Great Plains, Trico Centre, and Cardel Rec South on Fridays and Saturdays. If you’re interested, you have no issue with wearing a GoPro on your helmet, and you have at least 3 years refereeing experience with a good knowledge of Hockey Canada rules (unfortunately, experience only playing hockey without officiating experience will not be sufficient), then please text 403-703-1136 for consideration. 🏒 #adultrechockeycalgary #referees #scrhl

SCRHL VLOG #18 - This week’s VLOG is about the SCRHL spare list for goalies and skaters that’s emailed once per week on Sundays to all SCRHL team captains. There are about 300+ goalies on it (at the last count) and probably about 400 to 500+ skaters. Goalies never pay to play and skaters pay $22 per game. So, with this handy tool, SCRHL captains should never be in the position where they need to default their next game, providing they have enough time to call a spare goalie and spare skaters. Do you want to learn more about the SCRHL spare list? You can read about it on the SCRHL website at the following link, which also has information about team rosters, which we will be discussing in next week’s VLOG #19: https://lnkd.in/gdtzjRdN

SCRHL VLOG #14 - There are still skater vacancies in the Div 4E evening beginner division which is a refereed shinny format every Thursday night 10:30pm at Cardel Rec South. If you are interested and a beginner level player who wants to play week to week, you can now register on a per-game basis before 9:00pm each Thursday at $31 per game at the following link: https://lnkd.in/gMJvnbRB If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Grant at 403-703-1136.

SCRHL VLOG #13 - The SCRHL Fall 2024 half of the season (September 9th to December 21st) is now underway! There are still skater vacancies in the Div 4E evening beginner division which is a refereed shinny format every Thursday night at Cardel Rec South. If you are interested and a beginner level player, please give Grant a call at 403-703-1136 for registration. As a final note, all arena dressing room showers are unfortunately not available due to the ongoing water main issues in Calgary. As a result, until further notice, your team will be unable to use the showers following a game. Hopefully, this is resolved soon. Take care, everyone, and talk to you all again next week 🥅🏒

SCRHL VLOG #12 - As mentioned in a previous message a few days ago, the schedule for the SCRHL Fall 2024 half of the season (September 9th to December 21st) is now published on the SCRHL website at www.scrhl.ca.

See you all on the ice for the first Fall games during the week of September 9th! 🥅🏒

Terrible news out of the hockey world. I love the Tom Cochrane song, Big League, but the lyrics are sadly similar in this circumstance as they were with the Humboldt Broncos and Swift Current Broncos in past years. 🥅🏒
