MYHA Welcomes New Board Members

 

Welcome New Board Members


Dear MYHA Families,


As summer settles in, I reflect on how incredibly grateful I am for the members of our MYHA community and this amazing club we are all a part of. I hope all of you enjoy this break before next season begins. 
 

On behalf of the entire MYHA Board of Directors, officers, and club membership, I welcome Dan Lyons, Katya Shterenberg, and Steve Maki to the board and look forward to their continued contribution to the club for years to come.


I want to thank all of the candidates who ran for the board. Your dedication and love for MYHA  and hockey drives our motivation to continue to do what we do. There are always opportunities to get involved and we hope everyone will find ways to volunteer and give back to the club. 
 
Enjoy your summer and I look forward to an outstanding 2023-2024 season.

 
Sincerely,

Harris Vederman
President
MYHA Board of Directors

 
 

Dan Lyons

 

After more than nine years with MYHA as a parent and volunteer coach, Dan is looking forward to the opportunity to help guide the club as a board member. He is honored to be elected to this position and entrusted to help improve and strengthen MYHA to secure its future as a leader in youth hockey organizations.

Katya Shterenberg

 

This is Katya’s first term on the Board of Directors. MYHA has been her family’s only hockey home after her son, Ilan(14), joined as a first year Squirt. Throughout these last five years, Katya either managed or helped to manage the teams her son was on and often has served as a mentor to new managers. With her son now also volunteering as a Junior Coach at the instructional programs, she is, once again, reminded of the challenges that new hockey families face. As a firm believer that a positive and supportive environment enhances everyone’s experience, creates stronger bonds, and contributes to the kids’ drive to work harder, develop and succeed, she’s excited to join the BOD next season to help enhance our community’s experiences, aid in demystifying the process of hockey for the new and existing families, encourage increased community engagement, as well as support player and coach development in any aspect of hockey.

Steve Maki

 

Steve is joining the board for his first term. He has been a part of the MYHA Community for the past four years, coaching in the AIP, 6U, and 8U programs with his son Landon. As a coach, Steve has helped build a community of parents dedicated to the success of their players on and off the ice. He plans to use his time on the board to continue building a strong MYHA community and looks forward to serving the parents and players for the next three years and beyond.  

 
 

MYHA Coaches of the Year!

Each season, MYHA selects a coach of the year from each of its core programs—House, Girls Travel, and Boys/Co-ed Travel—for the Cleveland Howard Coach of the Year Award.

MYHA is pleased to announce that for the 2022-23 season the following coaches were selected for this prestigious award.

House: Mark Giron, Peewee Team 6

On his Peewee House team Mark Giron not only focused on teaching the game of hockey, but also emphasized the importance of hard work on and off the ice.  “(Coach Giron) made sure everyone knew they were valued, and every player had their teammates’ back. He ended every Sunday game with a reminder to finish their homework.”

Youth Travel: Marc Bragin, 12U B Blue

Marc Bragin was an inspiration to his team as stated by one of his players on the 12U B Blue team,  ”(Coach Bragin) gave us the best pep-talk I’ve ever heard.  He talked about willpower, aggressiveness, and gave us examples of plays to do.  After that pep-talk, we won 4-3 with a last second snapshot.  I will always remember that speech and the effect it had on my teammates and me."

Girls Travel: Dave Evans, Girls 14U AA Gold

Dave Evans won the Girls Travel award for his commitment to the values of positive coaching and player development. As one parent wrote in their nomination, “(Coach Evans) fostered the most positive team culture I have seen on about 15 teams my kids have played on over the last 7 years.  Through his leadership, the kids all supported each other and became amazing friends.  Simply put, he was a spectacular coach.”  

MYHA selects coaches for this award based on quantitative and qualitative aspects of nominations that you, the members, submit at the end of the season.  We are fortunate to have so many deserving coaches who dedicate countless hours to the development of our children as hockey players.  In fact, MYHA boasts over 200 head and assistant volunteer coaches in our House and Travel programs combined. We are also fortunate to have many teams that achieved success on the scoreboard, competing at the highest levels in their divisions.   However, this award is ultimately about recognizing the coaches that, based on your input, exemplify MYHA’s philosophy and its commitment to positive coaching and fostering a lifetime love of hockey.  
 
While the award often correlates with team performance, team performance is not a criterion considered by the Coach of the Year Committee.

Please congratulate Dave Evans, Mark Giron, and Marc Bragin on their accomplishments and thank them for their contributions to MYHA. Because of their work and that of all our volunteer coaches, our program continues to be one of great value to our member families.  This year's winners' names will be added to the Cleveland Howard Coach of the Year Award plaque that can be found in the Rockville Ice Arena’s lobby outside of Rink 1.
