The AHA seeks volunteers to serve on the board of directors. Thanks to the
volunteer spirit and to our fundraising, fees in the AHA are lower than
elsewhere in Western Massachusetts. Board members attend a meeting once a month
and discuss AHA policies. We also need a scheduler, treasurer, and other
volunteers to help organize the annual banquet, Amherst College coffee table,
and other events. The AHA offers hockey to 300 families every year. With your
participation the community will continue to flourish. Please contact one of
the following board members to become involved:
Dan Feldman: MBEDAN@COMCAST.NET
Dan Gordon: dgordon@history.umass.edu
Scott Duquette: SDuquette@MassMutual.com
Or, attend one of our monthly board meetings (see board meeting
schedule above).

| About the Amherst Hockey Association |
| |
| The Amherst Hockey Association provides a
supervised, recreational and competitive hockey program for youths from 4 to 17
years old who live in the Amherst, Massachusetts area. The AHA is member
organization of Massachusetts Hockey District 6 and USA Hockey. The AHA is a
non-profit organization that relies on parent and community volunteers for
coaching and managing our programs. The AHA runs programs for all levels of
youth skill and competition. Our programs are conducted primarily at Orr Rink
at Amherst College and at the Mullins Center practice facility on the campus of
the University of Massachusetts, as well as at other area rinks. Each year
approximately 250 skaters take part in AHA programs. The Initiation Program
develops skating and hockey skills in younger children. The Advanced Initiation
Program allows skaters to play in a less formal and competitive environment
while learning to play team hockey. AHA Travel Teams compete in the Greater
Springfield Junior Hockey League (GSL). Teams also play independent games that
are scheduled throughout Massachusetts, North Central Connecticut, Vermont,
western New Hampshire, and northeast New York. Our annual exchange program with
Montreal West further expands the cultural and competitive spectrum of the
program. Each team typically plays 50 games and has more than 90 hours of ice
time during the September through April season.
