Dear Junior Crusaders Families and Players,
As a community, the board members of the Junior Crusaders have been closely monitoring the status of the recent outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19). To ensure the safety and well-being of our hockey community, we have been working diligently with various health agencies, including the Department of Public Health, and closely monitoring USA Hockey and Mass Hockey to ensure that we are in full compliance with and in understanding of the many advisories and regulations being issued at this time. This is a time for both calm and preparedness, and being in communication with you. Although the Massachusetts Department of Public Health currently describes the risk of coronavirus as low across the Commonwealth, the Junior Crusaders are taking the lead in a proactive approach to protect our community.
Giving consideration to many factors to ensure the safety of the broader community, our members and guests, we are adjusting programming and events associated with the evaluations process and large scale events.
Effective immediately, all Junior Crusaders evaluations are postponed. On a positive note, we have just finished a very productive week of evaluations at all age groups and feel we have collected valuable data towards the placement process of your players. Going forward, the placement committee will start to work with the existing data to set some preliminary thoughts and start the team build out procedure until such a time as we can finish the evaluation process. In addition to evaluations all team practices, mom's practices, Ladies On Ice game, and the remainder of our Mosquito sessions are temporarily on hold until further notice.
As a community, the health and well-being of our families and players remains paramount and is of utmost importance to us. We thank you for your attention to and understanding of these matters. We will share updates with you as we get them.
We look forward to seeing you in the near future and are excited to have you as a part of the Junior Crusaders Hockey family.
Respectfully,
Your Board of Directors.
