SASA Mission Statement
To provide a fun, safe, competitive environment that allows not only each child to grow and develop into the best hockey player they can be, but the best person they can be. This is to be done by learning teamwork, camarderie, sportsmanship, dedication, and having respect for the game, coaches, officials, and parents who help serve our hockey community.

Sending your child with another parent or bringing someone else's child? Use the border crossing permission slip.
On June 1, 2009, the US government will require a passport, passport card, enhanced drivers license or another approved document to cross the border.
Please be prepared for the 2009-2010 season. Adults will need one of these documents to cross the border. Children under 16 will need a birth certificate (copy or original). SASA will continue to schedule games for travel mites, squirts, peewees, bantams and girls teams with our neighbors.
