Hockey players and their families tend to become one family as they play together through the years. Especially a smaller group such as Moon Hockey. With a heavy heart we’re reaching out for support for one of our players that just graduated with the class of 2021. Some may be aware; Austin Cooper tragically and suddenly lost his mother this summer.  Austin has just started his freshman year at Cal U, while his sister Paige, has just started her freshman year of high school.

With knowledge of the outpouring of support the community wants to give – their dad Bobby has opened a trust fund for Austin and his sister. MAHA is organizing a collection of monetary donations and the MAHA Board will contribute as well. Austin played for Moon Hockey from 7th grade through his senior year. We’ve attempted to share this message with all players and families who have played with him throughout those years. Please feel free to pass along the message to anyone you think might have not received.

Checks can be mailed to MAHA PO Box 789 Moon Township PA 15108.

Donations can also be made via PayPal with the below link. A PayPay account is not necessary. Please add Cooper to your note.

Hockey Season is HERE!

Welcome to the 2021-2022 season! Players and coaches have already hit the ice readying for a strong 2021-2022 campaign!

Thank you to all those players and their families who braved the elements to join us at the Moon Hockey Kick Off Party earlier this month! I’m quite sure a good time was had by all, even those volleyball enthusiasts that got quite wet and muddy!

Moon Hockey is very pleased to announce that we have acquired three new sheets of ice this season, which will help accommodate both our new 2nd Middle School Team, and also, an additional developmental squad….the future is BRIGHT!

The third ice slot is not dedicated to our two new teams, and will be used by the entire organization, although it will have a primary focus on the development of our High School Teams. With this 3rd sheet of ice, we will mix in optional SKILL NIGHTS open to the whole organization. These skills sessions represent an excellent opportunity for players of all ages to work on their skill development with the ultimate goal of becoming the best player that they can become.

The best part of the three new sheets is they are all 8pm or earlier and they are all at RMU. We are constantly working on improving both our ice times and the overall strength of our entire program!

As many of you know, next season we’ll be re-designing our uniforms and introducing a new look. We have put together a Uniform Committee to head up the re-design process and their kick off meeting is September 9th. We look forward to hearing from interested parties, including our players as we go through this process. If you are interested in participating, please let me know and I’ll put you in touch with the Uniform Committee.

Upcoming things to look forward to with more details to follow over the course of the next few weeks:
