Hello, rookies! We'd like to get as many of you going for S8 as we can. So, please check the schedule and try to attend Farm and Scrims so you can get ice-ready. If you're not sure how many you've played we can check for you. Keep in contact with Anh regarding questions or concerns you have and we will aim to have a rookie draft every 2 weeks to get you playing.
Farm games: Monday and Wednesday at 6pm
Saturdays at 10am
Scrimmages: Every day at 12pm and 5pm |

Hi Abu! Nice to see you again. We have scrimmages scheduled for every day at 12pm and 5pm, although there are days when sometimes people do not show up for them. It depends on the day of week, some at work, other reasons. Unfortunately things are a bit slow during the SL daytime hours. But if you open the group Global Online Hockey Association, you can see who is online and inquire about getting a scrimmage going if no one seems to be around. Also, talk to Tuvok Dingson or Kacey Rossini. Tuvok is the manager of the European Division and generally is around during the day. You can also look for the North American manager, Vivienne Coppola. She is also around a lot during the daytime hours of SL.
We have members from the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, Ukraine, and more. I believe we have someone else also originally from United Arab Emirates? Vivienne is from the UK. Tuvok is Dutch, Marjan Tomba the Ref manager is Canadian. Many of us use the translators available in Second Life. I believe some of those are a bit weak in translation, but we're not afraid to use them! 
I have your Friend Card, I will look you up again and get in touch with you. We can do some more practicing any time. |

| Oh also Abu--make sure you watch for group notices, usually people will either send out a notice or just say something in the group chat when random scrimmages or the scheduled ones are starting. |

I meant to post this a few days ago as a reminder to everyone:
Once logged into the stats site, you can view the "Rising Stars" page to see the status of all the rookie players and qualifier games played.
The qualifiers are still based on Season 8 standards - Farm and Euro games only.
