Fall Adult League Registration
(5 v 5 & 4 v4)
Adults, we have been hard at work scheduling the fall Adult Leagues for both our Barn 5 v 5 Leagues and Pond 4 v 4 Leagues. The following is a list of all the amenities our Adult League Players will experience this fall:
- Hockey Only Ice. Brand New Ice.
- 10% Discount on all your league hockey when you enroll in both a PHC 4v4 and 5v5 League at the same time.
- Great weeknight start times (645pm, 810pm, 935pm). You thought only the pros played under the lights at 645pm and 8pm? No longer!
- 70-75 minute games (plenty of time for full 5 minute warm-up and all stoppages, without having to be rushed through your game, or having to wait on a schedule that is always running behind.)
- With our 4v4 and 5v5 offerings, you can now play in at least 5 different leagues all under the same roof, and never have a hockey-related scheduling conflict or 2 games on the same day!!!
- Set schedule for entire season... yes, you can make plans ahead of time and aren't beholden to monthly scheduling and hoping the schedule works.
- Payment Plan for season fees.
- Towel and Shampoo service in brand new large locker rooms... with hot showers, for every locker room.
- Beer. Austin BeerWorks expansion and expanded hours.
- Beverages. The PHC is now providing metal tubs and ice in every locker room to put your beverages in. No more lugging coolers to the rink!
- PHC staff on hand at the front desk to help you with on demand skate sharpening before and after your games, with our new 3-headed Blackstone sharpening machine.

Shootout Foundation
The Shootout Foundation, a non profit organization committed to supporting youth and sled hockey programs in Austin has been working hard this past few months to support some of our young Austin players. The following are a few of the programs the Foundation has supported:
- The Foundation donated $8,000 to the Austin Blades Sled Hockey Program for gear and ice time
- The Foundation sent 4 youth hockey players to Bridgton Sports Camp in Bridgton, ME this summer to focus on hockey development in a camp setting
- The foundation sent 5 youth players to our Pond Hockey Summer camp
- The Foundation is funding two non parent coaches for each practice session the Mallards Minor Hockey League teams have for the 2016-2017 hockey season
- The Foundation is funding all tournament entry fees for the Mallards Tournament Teams
- The Foundation is funding Robby Glantz, NHL power skating coach, who will run power skating clinics for all MMHL and Mallards Tournament Team players this fall
- The Foundation is funding Sean Skinner's stick handling clinic, which will be a part of our Pre Season Training Camp for the Mallards Tournament team players
- The Foundation subsidizes ice fees for the Mallards Minor Hockey League, making the programs more affordable for all families

Auston Matthews Article
There was an interesting article in USA Hockey's publication last month about Auston Matthews, a first round draft pick in the NHL. The article highlights Auston's non traditional development.
"This kid grew up in a non-traditional southern market and really had a non-traditional development path," DeAngelis said. "It basically flies in the face of any parent who's spending $150,000 on their child's development to play AAA all over the world. He's really turning it upside-down."
At the Pond, we subscribe this development model, and encourage you to read his story!
