To all Glenbard Hockey Families and Players,
I want to thank all of you for a successful 2014-15 hockey season. One that saw our Varsity team win its
second state title and third appearance in four years and at the United Center. One that saw our JV team
make it to the state Final Four in a double overtime thriller. This season should be just as exciting for
the players, parents and club as we compete in our third season in the IHSHL West Division. Last season
proved to be a positive step for the club. Both the Varsity and Junior Varsity players experienced great
competition, more games, and better opportunities to grow as both individuals and hockey players. Below
are some highlights of our league:

Player Fees & Payments:
Fees for the fall/winter season will be $3,250 per player and $1,950 per goalie at both JV and Varsity
levels. Additionally, new players to the program will need to purchase a set of home & away jerseys and
socks. New Varsity players will also need to purchase an alternate “third” jersey and socks.
Glenbard Hockey offers two payment options for player fees

** NOTE** If a scheduled payment is not received by the 30th of the month in which it is due, then the player will not be allowed on
the ice until the payment is received. No player will be allowed on the ice after January 1st if the player’s balance is not paid in
full.
For fall tryouts, all players will have to bring their USA Hockey registration number. You can secure it at
the following web site http://www.usahockeyregistration.com. No player will be allowed on the ice
without his or her registration number.
Finally, if you are buying new equipment, please consider the following: our hockey helmet, gloves, and
pants/shells are primarily black. Though not required, it is strongly suggested that you consider this
when purchasing new gear.
Once we get underway, we will have both parent & team meetings. I hope you all have had a great
summer, and I look forward to seeing you at the rink.
Sincerely,
David Weisz
President, Glenbard Hockey Club
