Hey there PARENTS AND FANS!
The Sarnia Sabers Novice HL Division will be in need of Adults and Teens that
are interested is seeing the game from a different angle. The bench is a
very exciting place to be during our games, with all the ups and downs, twists
and turns that come with the game of hockey.
It's very exciting indeed. But it also gives you as chance to do something bigger...be part of a team and have a positive effect on our community and youth.
Not experience! No Problem it's called NOVICE for a reason...most of our players are just learning to and will be more than happy to improve and progress with you.
Can't Skate! No Problem, we have plenty of positions as Trainers and Managers that don't require being on the ice with skates.
Don't think you'll be selected...guess again we need close to 70 volunteers to run our program effectively. As well we will have a few Divisional Positions if interest exists and our volunteer numbers allow it. Novice is grassroots hockey and we want as many people to learn the love of this game. Participation in the organization is certainly one way to learn
