About Coach Milan’s Newsletter

Welcome to Coach Milan’s Newsletter, a space dedicated to youth hockey in the Pacific Northwest. As a parent, coach, and coordinator, I share practical tips, stories, and insights from life at the rink. Whether you are a parent wondering when to start your child in hockey, a coach looking to learn about requirements and resources, or part of our community following along with the season, this newsletter is for you. Expect (hopefully) useful guides, season updates, and behind-the-bench perspectives that make youth hockey easier, more fun, and more rewarding for players, families, and coaches alike.
