Community Outreach: Oct & Nov Projects

We have some great opportunities for community service coming up! We’ll be volunteering at Second Harvest Food Bank in October, this time at the San Jose location. We will also be playing street hockey with kids again at Sunday Friends in November. We got a special request to return!

Please sign up at the links below if you can help out. Make sure to bring your jersey to both events! As always, feel free to contact us at ncwhl.community@gmail.com if you have any suggestions for volunteer opportunities or donation drives.

2018 NCWHL Picnic & Labor Day Tournament

We held our Annual Picnic on September 1 this year at Cuesta Park in Mountain View and drew more than 70 League members out to enjoy grilled burgers, hot dogs and chicken, as well as a smorgasbord of pot-luck goodies. April Tse was the winner of the 50% off registration raffle. She also took a few pictures to commemorate the day:

In addition, 45 skaters across all four divisions participated in the Labor Day Tournament at Ice Oasis. The tournament ran from September 1 to September 3. Players played 5 games total including a playoff game and a final. All of the games were close; both playoff games went into extra time and the Championship game, which entered OT with a 0-0 tie, was decided with a crafty five-hole shootout goal by Green Division skater, Candice Nishimura!
