Rink Rat Team Parent

Thank you for taking on the role of Team Parent for Rink Rats. The Wayha Head Team Parent will be your resource for the season. 

The purpose of the team parent is to serve as a contact person for the team, parents, coaches and the Wayha organization for the duration of their season. 

Our Rink Rat program is considered an “in-house” non-travel team with practices typically twice a week from early October to early February.

1.     Your contact information will be listed as the Team parent on the Team page. This includes your email and phone for the team to contact you with questions. (Coaches information is also located here). 

2.     Access to the Crossbar app will allow for you to add practice day assignments or additional events. (The season practice schedule will be added by our ice scheduler). 

3.     Team Parent will also have access to the www.wayha.com team page to send emails to your families. 

4.     Distributing and collecting the 5 calendars per family Raffle Calendars. These are handed out early November and due back mid-December. This is our one mandatory fundraiser with all stubs collected. 

5.     Assigning weekly locker room cleaning for locker rooms 1-4 alphabetically through the online roster. Two families can split this task (one for Locker Room 1-2 and one for Locker Room 3-4). These will be assigned on the crossbar app. (Taking out garbage, sweeping and mopping).

6.     Each family is to do 8 hours of volunteer time. This can be any combination of Open Skate/High School Game/ or Volunteer Hours on the volunteer tab.  These hours are due by March 1^st. If they are unable or unwilling there’s a $50 per hour fee for missed hours. 

7.     Mini-Mite Tournament TBD from 9-12pm. This will be for skaters who have not participated in a Tournament style game. (Discussion can be made for raffle prizes or chuck-a-duck).  

8.     Rink Rat Scrimmage (7 minutes) during Varsity Comet Hockey Game. Date: TBD. Be ready by 6:40pm. 

9.     Stevens Point Ice Hawks Mini-Mite Tournament. TBD. Typically late in the season.

10.  Organizing an end of the season family skate, ice cream party/potluck and awards to close out the season. This also includes a contribution from the families to purchase the Coaches a small appreciation gift to be presented at that time. 

Every year, Wayha is very fortunate for our parents who step up and take on the role of Team Parents. We can't thank you enough for connecting our Parents, Coaches, Skaters and Wayha organization.
