April 2008 - Empire League Welcomes Newest Member Team
The Empire Junior Hockey League recently approved the addition of the New York Jr. Coyotes as their 20th member team.
Jason LeClair will head up the team's operation and serve as coach. "The NY Coyotes Hockey Club is extremely proud to have been accepted into the EmJHL. We feel junior hockey is the pinnacle of the skills development program for USA Hockey, and that the Empire league provides our local kids the best chance for advancement" stated LeClair.
"There are a lot of quality players in that area (Potsdam/Massena)" said League Commisioner Don Kirnan, "who would not otherwise be serviced by Junior hockey. This should be a good fit for both the Coyotes and our League".
The NY Coyotes are looking to provide talented and dedicated young men with the opportunity to develop in a competitive, organized, structured, and supervised environment.
Any players looking for more information about the program, please contact the Coyotes directly. www.nyjrcoyotes.com
