The DIHA decided last night that all practices will start next week.
Practice fees are $350 for the year. This needs to be paid in two installments, half in March and the rest in the beginning of June.
The New Zealand Under 20 Ice Hockey Team have won the gold medal in the IIHF U20 World Ice Hockey Championships Division 3 in Belgrade recently. New Zealand beat the favoured team Serbia to win their first ever World Championships. The team won the gold medal in a tight 5 – 4 game vs Serbia after beating Bulgaria (19 – 1), Turkey (20 -1), Armenia (8 – 4) and Australia (7 – 2). They are yet to play South Africa, but can not be beaten to the Gold Medal and will be promoted to Division 2 for 2009.
More information about the teams success is available at Scoop. For information about who is on the team, please visit the New Zealand Junior Ice Hockey Team Roster.
