[quote=Anonymous][quote] Interesting!  One other thing about MYHA is that the main clinics are run by the Keegan NBN business, which seems like a conflict of interest since he is the director of MYHA and has influence over team selections.  This is especially true for the younger ages, as he coaches the 10AA team that is the primary feeder to TM, so his clinics are packed by younger kids trying to get in his radar.  Other rinks I’m familiar with have clinics that are run by the organization or a private group not associated with the team.[/quote]

That is another good point. I was mainly pointing to financial double-dealing, but Keegan's control of team selection, as you point out, is another dimension of the corruption. It was when my kid was around that 10U bracket that my spouse watched a tryout (Selects?) and reported back that there wasn't a direct relationship between clearly better players and those that got picked for the better spots, and thought perhaps being a NBN customer played a role (although even then thought it might be just a narrow situation confined to that person.) That was when I thought I'd look into who earns what at MYHA and...yikes--it raised all sorts of red flags. We then switched clubs (I've alluded to this in other threads).

[quote] I honestly never realized there was so much shady business going on at MYHA. I googled it quickly, and it looks like the girls director also runs a training business. As you mentioned, that seems like a big conflict of interest for team selection.[/quote]
I didn't even look into this TBH. But I'm glad you pointed it out--another thing people should look into more. 
Shady business is an understatement!! [/quote]
