Inviting all area youth hockey team managers, coaches, and schedulers to join a Western PA area facebook group. The mission is to assist managers in filling and finding available ice slots, facilitating in scheduling games, and inviting other teams to tournaments and showcases.

The new forum has advanced capabilities of tagging someone (or several) people within a post. If you know their username, all you need to do is type the "@" symbol followed by their username. As you start to type the username it will do an "AJAX" lookup and show you all the usernames that start with those letters. Select one of those usernames and keep typing your post. The person (or people) that you tagged will get a notification that you tagged them when you make the post. I find this a very handy feature. Check it out!

Crawford County Youth Hockey Association has openings on their U12 & U10 travel teams. For players still looking for an organization to play travel hockey but have yet to be placed on a team we are in need of one or two players at each level to fill out a full, healthy roster. Teams have openings for any/all positions. Both teams will play a PAHL league schedule, likely in an "A-Minor" classification. Please email the organization at cchyaflames@gmail.com for more information.

Today I deployed a brand new, robust theme which is now set as the forum default. This them is call ORTEM. It has the ability to show lots of forum statistics and is much more robust than the built-in theme that came with the software.

Just as an FYI, the new forum has a fully optimized mobile browser version. No app needed...

Hello Everyone! I am pleased to welcome you to the brand-new Western PA Hockey forum. The new forum has 100x the features of the old forum but best of all we are free of the restrictions placed on us by the former "free" forum provider. I can speak from experience the old forum setup was sub-par both in terms of technology and the way they treated their forum clients. I couldn't wait to get off that platform and this new forum took lots of time and planning to implement, plus the software is not free (I went with a proven, robust forum platform). As I had previously noted, the prior forum provider claimed full ownership of all the forum content, so we we…
