How to put on Goalie Gear with Mites
I have added a link in the MITES HANDBOOK tab for a video in Windows Media Format. The video is actually hosted on my personal web page (didn't want it on You Tube) but the link will open the video directly in it's own window. I hope it helps take out some of the mystery about how to dress your son or daughter in the goalie gear when they get their chance between the pipes...

2010 MITE HANDBOOK
The HYHA coaching staff and Board of Directors have created a Mite Handbook for new families to HYHA. The Handbook describes the information needed for a new family to hockey to understand in order to have a successful first season with hockey. The information includes what equipment is necessary, what kind of time commitment should be expected, skills that will be taught, and general information about the game of hockey. Its MUST reading for any new family to Youth Hockey.
How to put on Goalie Gear for Mites
Click on the Title above to see the video. I shot a video of putting the goalie gear on Grant. This should help parents who are dressing their son or daughter in the goalie gear for the first time. I hope it helps putting that gear on for the first time... One thing to keep in mind.. not all of the pads that the Associaton has are the same type and design that I have shown in the video. Some of the pads are NOT designed for the butterly technique and DO NOT have the "knee pocket" that Grant's pads have. Several of the kids have banged their knees up dropping onto the ice while the pad has rotated to the outside, causing their knee to become exposed. I would recommend looking at the pads when you have them at home and making a dry run getting the dressed. Some of the kids have worn separate knee pads, and some have worn their shin pads under the goalie pads. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask your coach about the pad set that your team will be using. Thanks, Coach Greg
