NJDYHC SLED HOCKEY TEAM ANNOUNCES 2007 SCHEDULE

The NJDYHC sled hockey team has announced the first
two games of its 2007 ice hockey schedule. Head coach Al Graul said the sled squad will battle the Wildcats junior hockey team on Sunday, February 4 at Union Sports Arena in Union, N.J. at 2 p.m. and then journey up to the Skylands rink in Sussex County, N.J. on Saturday, February 17 for a game against a team of New York State all stars at 6:30 p.m.

"We're very excited about these two games and we will
be announcing additional games soon," Graul said. "We're inviting the public to come and see these sled games. If you are a sports fan and you haven't seen a sled game you are in for a real treat. Sled games are fast, hard hitting and lots of fun for the players and spectators alike."

The team includes Danielle Barry, Phillip Bramwell, John Broadbent, Adam Burak, Calvin Casey, Josh Cooper, David Gelfand, Bryson McLead, Ryan Powers, Brian Reddington, Louis Riccardi, Mike Salverino, Amanda Trott and Joseph Volfman.

Coach Graul is assisted by co-coach George Wirt and managers Chris and Doreen Szymczak. The NJDYHC sled team provides young people with mobility impairments a unique opportunity to play the fastest game on ice. The Devils sled team has dazzled audiences in arenas throughout North Jersey and New York with their fast paced, whirling and slashing style of play.
