It is important that all Yorkton Minor Hockey Coaches, Managers, Players and Families do what they can to help prevent the flu from spreading. It has been noted that there are some kids that have been missing school because they are sick, yet these kids are coming to hockey games and practices. Hockey is important to all of us and we need people to realize that when they are sick they need to stay at home and get healthy.
Be well, have fun and take care,
