2011-12 President's Message
Welcome to the Erindale Hockey
Association. I am truly honoured to be part of such a
dedicated, passionate, and talented group of volunteers here
at Erindale. I can still remember the early days and my
first exposure to this great association, lining up with all
the other families in the stairwells at EMTR to hopefully get
a spot in the coveted IP program. I never dreamed that things
would lead to this.
The Erindale Hockey Association (EHA) was
formed in 1946 by Mr. Wally Oughtred and his brother Gord. The
Erindale logo includes the famous RAF Spitfire. The Spitfire
symbolizes skill, determination, and a never quite attitude.
The very attributes that the EHA strives to instill in its
players and coaches.
At Erindale hockey, our motto is
“skill, determination and a never quit attitude.” This
motto runs through the entire association from our 100%
volunteer run board of directors to our volunteer coach’s
right down to our cherished players.
Our goal year to year is to ensure that
each and every one of our players and families have a
successful hockey experience. Erindale encourages all of our
players, coaches, and families to learn about teamwork,
dedication, fitness, and fair play and to develop community
spirit and community involvement amongst all our participants.
Erindale believes in teaching all the
players and coaches respect for all those involved in this
great game of hockey… game officials, opposing coaches and
players, parents from all teams, of course teammates, and most
importantly for themselves.
Thanks for choosing the Erindale Hockey
association and we will strive to make this a memorable and
pleasant hockey experience.
Yours in hockey,
Ted Varty
President
Erindale Hockey Association
Thank you for visiting and please come back again.
"Skill, Determination, Never Quit Attitude"
