Although success at the team and individual level is important, SYHA places significant emphasis on the development of student -athletes of all level of abilities. SYHA promotes long-term athlete and child development by providing on-ice and off-ice training opportunities that allow each player to maximize his or her potential in a competitive learning environment, while providing lessons that allow them to excel in life. We believe very strongly in citizenship, sense of community and sportsmanship. 

Need more game socks? Rink too cold and you need ANOTHER SYHA sweatshirt?  Visit the online Team Shop between now and November 1st. The store will only be "open" online for 2 weeks to allow time for mid-December delivery.

The SYHA Annual Skate-a-Thon Fundraiser will be held October 24 from 4-8PM. Please save the date and help your skater to set up their donation page. Please see this flyer for more information. In addition, it takes many volunteers for Skate-a-Thon to run smoothly and we hope that you can help! Please watch your emails for volunteer sign-up

This fun SYHA community event helps raise funds for:

SYHA  Family Registration Fee. The SYHA Registration fee  of $125 can be paid online. This fee supports tournament entry fees, equipment, additional ice time at local rinks, family activities, coaches, and scholarships. This is a PER-FAMILY fee, so if you have multiple players in SYHA, you only need to register your oldest player.

USA Hockey Registration.  USA Hockey registration must be completed annually for every player. In addition, all volunteers MUST be registered with USA Hockey (Volunteer membership is FREE!) If you plan to help with music, penalty box, or any activity with the team then you MUST register with USA Hockey. Managers will collect confirmations once teams are assembled 

Over the years, SYHA has impacted the lives of thousands of children. In any given year, our program reaches hundreds of kids.

SYHA is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization and donations for sponsorships may be tax deductible in accordance with IRS regulations.  Please review the brochure describing some of the support that SYHA provides and outlining the three levels of sponsorship ($500/$1000/$2000).

The annual Always a Raider Award is a very special award in Shaker because it recognizes first year Varsity players who played their entire youth hockey career in Shaker Heights. We have a wonderful community with a long legacy of great hockey players and families. 

December 3rd, this week, 50 years ago in 1970, marks the 50th Anniversary of the very first SHHS Hockey game.  Follow our high school team on Facebook for photos and highlights. ENJOY!   https://www.facebook.com/ShakerVarsityHockey

The 1970-71 Red Raiders—Shaker’s first high hockey team in modern history—pictured here at Thornton Park—prior to its first game at Garfield Heights on December 3, 1970.  Note the Boston Bruin jerseys—the same jerseys worn during the inaugural game. The familiar red and white uniforms were not ready until later in the season.
