Kudos to all Hockey Seed roller hockey athletes!

Summer 2005 was certainly a great year for roller hockey players in the Philadelphia area. Not only did you have your choice of local and regional events just about every weekend from April through July, but a number of national events (USAHIL, ECHO, USARS, 2Hot4Ice) were in a driveable distance. Some of our Hockey Seed kids also tried out for State Wars, and represented the state of Pennsylvania in Bensonville IL (suburban Chicago) in the inaugural year of this event.

Not everyone who takes a Hockey Seed clinics chooses to participate in travel roller hockey. We are very proud of the progress of all of our kids, who are fast becoming some of the strongest players in the Sportsplex roller hockey league. Walt and I get a real kick out of seeing you play at the Plex on Friday nights. Kudos to each one of you!
