EMHA Alumni

The Edmonton Minor Hockey Association Alumni (EMHA) was incorporated in August of 2000 to:

• Raise funds for the development of minor hockey in Edmonton and to promote, foster, and encourage the development of hockey in general.
• Assist underprivileged and low-income families with fees for registration and equipment.
• Assist in Minor Hockey programs sponsored by the EMHA.
• Support and provide funding for non-profit minor hockey programs.
  
  

FUNDING GRANTS FOR ATHLETES

The EMHA Alumni has partnered with KIDSPORT EDMONTON and SPORTCENTRAL in order to better assist underprivileged and low-income families for hockey registration funding.

GUIDELINES FOR GRANTS TO INDIVIDUAL ATHLETES
