Trhese men who coach, maniage or train these, teams are dedicated ta the job, sanie have noa sons involved ini minaor hockey, and sonîîe have sans aid enough ta hielp coach, but they stili corne out. Sonîîe people feel Ihat onîce tlîey have h)aid thieir mioîey for minar hockey registration, that this is where parental involvement ends. This is not truce.
