PRIHA Athletes-Members,
Coming up June 6-8 is our annual Fiesta de Hockey NYC event. There are several exciting changes/updates for this years event compared to the past Fiesta de Hockey NYC events.
We have grown our partnership with the New York Islanders and will be hosting the event at Northwell Health Center Ice (practice facility of the New York Islanders).
We will continue our transition to tournament format. For this event we will be hosting the first-ever IIHF-rules 3v3 tournament on US soil!
I welcome you to view the links below to view the fast-paced action of our Women’s National Team who competed last November in the first IIHF senior 3v3 competition and an interview from Brazil with IIHF 3v3 sport director, Florian.
We will be in our 4th National Puerto Rican Day Parade (photos from last two years attached). This year we are leading the charge for growth of Winter Olympic Sports in Puerto Rico by inviting our fellow Winter Olympic athletes to march alongside us! We have confirmed participation from the first Free-Skier representing La Bandera internationally and 10 members of the Puerto Rico Curling Federation!
For some this will be the last chance to showcase skills ahead of selection of the LATAM Cup teams! We will be sending 8 total team to that tournament this year which will be our last event for most categories.
