Minnesota Hockey announced today registration is open for its fifth annual Association Leader Excellence Conference (ALEC) on April 25-26. The conference will start on Saturday, April 25 at the Marriott Minneapolis West in St. Louis Park, followed by a second day of sessions taking place at the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel & Event Center in Mankato, MN on Sunday, April 26.

The conference will provide volunteers in Minnesota with opportunities for learning best practices and networking with youth hockey leaders at the local, state and national levels. Over the past four years, the Association Leader Excellence Conference has hosted more than 350 youth hockey volunteers from nearly 100 associations. 

“The Association Leader Excellence Conference is a great opportunity for the passionate volunteer leaders throughout Minnesota to come together and learn from equally energetic presenters and panelists who share their enthusiasm for the youth of Minnesota,” said Steve Oleheiser, Minnesota Hockey President. “We truly have incredible volunteers serving on our association boards, and we take pride in supporting their efforts to provide the best possible hockey experience to young players in their communities.”

In 2020, the Association Leader Excellence Conference will once again place an emphasis on providing opportunities for networking and idea sharing. Sessions will be offered on a variety of topics such as local discipline, finance, growing the game, and player development. An official list of topics and schedule will be posted later in March.

Conference attendees are expected to include, but are not limited to, association presidents, vice presidents, treasurers, registrars, hockey directors, mite coordinators and more.

Minnesota Hockey would like to thank JLG Architects, Rink Systems, SportsEngine, The Hockey IntelliGym and Viking Trophies for their outstanding support of this event.
