Being a part of the game entails much hard work. Being on the team takes a big commitment because of the longer season and practices, said Meyer-Hoffer. The season lasts the entire school year, from Sept. to March. This season resembles that of only a couple of other club sport teams including Rugby, Soccer, and Men s Ice Hockey. Practices are held once a week in the fall and twice a week in the spring.
Dedication is key to the success of the team.
You really have to want to play, said Meyer-Hoffer. The Women s Ice Hockey Team supports itself through a variety of fundraisers. The team sponsors a summer women s hockey league during June through August. Four teams are involved in the league. Many new experiences await the Women s Ice Hockey Team and Coach Meyer-Hoffer has set several goals.
