ECRHA Braves Storms

The ECRHA pulled off a successful dual tournament this past weekend in Central NJ despite a serious storm that hit the northeastern United States and dumped one to two feet of snow on the surrounding areas for the first time this winter.
ECRHA wishes to thank EVERY player who braved the storm to attend this event. ECRHA received approximately 300 calls at the commencement of the storm, mostly by parents, with concerns and anger over our decision to not cancel the event in spite of the weather forecast and blizzard-like conditions.
Teams and individuals were told repeatedly that they should not travel to the event if they felt uncomfortable with the weather and that if their games were not played, the Active Club Committee would meet on the issue before any forfeits or actions were issued.
With a full event at Center Circle in Rahway and another full event at Inman?s Sports in Edison just 10 miles away, ECRHA completed 47 of its 50 scheduled games.
