All Coaches are required to register for each sport you would like to coach. If you have multiple children, you will need to register for each division separately so that when division coordinators run their report your name will be recognized and considered. There is no cost at this time.

HOCKEY

    Winter 2021

We will be accepting Marlton Dek Hockey Winter 2021-2022 registrations from AUGUST 12 until SEPTEMBER 30th.  A late fee of $25.00 will be applied to all registrations beginning October 1. A multi-child discount will be applied at time of registration, but all children must be registered at the same time.

NOTE: NO PLAYER REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER THE LEAGUE DRAFT. MRC Hockey attempts to roster competitive teams based on player ability, with each team being assigned players with a variety of skill levels. In direct terms, late registrations hurt the integrity and competitiveness of the program.

There will be ratings nights for Penguin and Beaver on 10/11 and 10/12 prior to the season. Players need only attend one night. We strongly encourage participation at a ratings night. Parents will be contacted in the early Fall with final details.  Players are drafted and rostered in late October.

MRC Hockey offers multiple divisions with practice beginning approximately November 1 and games beginning Thanksgiving Day weekend with our opening fundraising tournament. Dec 1st through mid-February, games-only are played Mon-Sunday. Chipmunk division is weekend-only with a split session of coaching followed by short games.

Information, including required equipment, and sample practice and game schedules, can be found at: www.marltonstreethockey.com

_________________________________________________________________________

Tournament (Travel) Dek Hockey Info: is a competitive extension of the recreation season and typically runs from the last weekend in February until the second weekend in May. Marlton Chiefs will field several competitive teams in A, B, and C divisions, depending on the number of players seeking to play tournament (travel) hockey. Travel will be in South Jersey and consist of approximately (5) tournaments playing a usual minimum of 20 games, and more as you advance in the tournament bracket. Tryouts/ratings for Tournament Hockey will be held in early December on a weeknight. Players must attend at least one tryout. We intend to have players rostered, uniforms purchased, and registration complete by the holiday break for the start of the tournament season in February. Tournament players cannot be rostered to multiple teams or multiple towns for tournament season. Hockey players who play spring sports are asked to give EQUAL preference to hockey and spring sports, understanding that time will be divided between hockey and other spring sport commitments. Tournament hockey players must have played hockey for Marlton in the Winter 2021-2022 season. Tryout signup/registration will be sent to all participants at a later date.

Track & Field

       Spring 2021

Parents and Athletes,

It has been over a year since I have communicated with many of you. What a year it has been. Last year, we lost our Spring Track season due to the global pandemic. This year we are still faced with the necessity of addressing issues that continue to affect our daily lives due to that same pandemic.

This year’s MRC Track & Field will look and feel very different than many of you are accustomed to. The situation with youth athletics is fluid.  My fellow commissioners and myself continue to “pivot” in an effort to provide opportunities for our athletes to engage in the sport that they love.

Myself and the MRC Track Assistant Commissioner have been working with the MRC Board and many of the Commissioners from our fellow teams in the GSTAF Association. In an effort to remain safe and adhere to New Jersey state guidance as it pertains to group/team athletics, we believe that we have a plan in place that will allow us to achieve that goal.

I know that many parents and athletes are eager to sign up for MRC Track & Field, but I want to provide you with the most current information as to the changes in our program to keep all members of our community safe and meet New Jersey state guidance. Some or all of the following conditions may change as circumstances with the pandemic change.

The following Township and programs will be attempting to field a team from the GSTAF;

Camden, Medford, Washington Township, World Athlete, Rancocas Valley, and Marlton

All of the above mentioned teams have agreed to:

• Only field a team with athletes nine years of age or older (all athletes must be nine years of age or turn nine years prior to December 31, 2021).
  • MRC will have a separate registration for eight and under athletes that will not compete in a team format. U8 program will resemble intramural athletics.
• No spectators will be allowed.
• Events may have a limited number of participants per team.
• There is a great possibility, that we will not run relays.
• At this time field events may be limited to long jump only.
• Practices will have a soft start date of March 15.

We know that many of you will have many questions (trust me, at this time so do we). Assistant Commissioner Greg Cieslik and myself, Commissioner Chris Corona, will be meeting with our fellow commissioners for the GSTAF teams again on February 20. After that meeting, we will be putting together a virtual Q&A for MRC parents.

Greg and myself also want to encourage all parents of athletes to consider obtaining their MRC coaching certificate. You can find more information about attending a course in becoming certified through the MRC website. No experience in Track & Field is necessary to be a coach. Remember, the New Jersey state guidance as of this writing indicates that no spectators will be allowed.

Registration is NOW OPEN. At this time, the planned close date for registration will be March 8. The fee for the season is $115.00

Sincerely,

Be Well-Be Safe

Chris Corona

Commissioner
