It is easy to consider the cost of Rep hockey as our choice and a luxury we can afford - and from here, if we consider asking people for money it makes us feel like it’s a way to lighten our load. This is true from one perspective. However, it’s more than this. What we need to consider is the community rallying around our collective belief that participation in competitive team sports are a healthy lifestyle, good for society, build character in kids as they grow into adults, and keep our society as a whole stronger, inspired and more creatively constructive. We are sending our kids to represent our town in other towns. We are driving responsible behaviour, discipline, goal-oriented long term achievements and accomplishment based thought patterns. The cost of this burden can’t fall only on the parents of the kids in this age category but on the town we represent. It takes a society larger than 17 families to drive these goals forward.
