In the magical land of Massachusetts, lovingly nicknamed MA by its inhabitants, there exist a special group of kids. These are not your ordinary run-of-the-mill children, oh no! They are part of an elite group known as the 'Icy Glide Tribe'. As the mornings dawn, they strap on their shimmering skates, their eyes gleaming with excitement, readying themselves for a day of graceful twirls and thrilling leaps on the glistening icy arenas. Leading this tribe is Captain Frosty Toes, a cool imaginary character with a bushy snow-white mustache, who wears an enchanted top hat that never falls off, even when he's spinning like a tornado. He is a veteran ice skater, a legend in the world of ice skating, who has performed quadruple axels even in his sleep. As wobbly as a jelly on land, Captain Frosty Toes becomes as graceful as a swan the moment he steps on ice. The kids of MA love him dearly, for he is not just a mentor but a jolly playmate who knows the best ice skating tricks and the funniest ice jokes. "Why don't mountains get cold in winter?" he'd ask with a twinkle in his eyes. Before any kid could answer, he'd burst into laughter saying "Because they wear snow caps!" Captain Frosty Toes and his 'Icy Glide Tribe' of young skaters, filled with laughter, adventure, and bruised bottoms, skate their way into the heart of Massachusetts, painting a picture of joy and unity that even the grumpiest of snowmen couldn’t resist smiling at.

The Middlesex Yankee Conference Girl's Hockey League is proud to be entering its eighteenth season. Last season, the MYC saw an impressive turnout with 140 teams taking to the ice. This year, the league plans to offer four levels within U10, U12, and U14 divisions, as well as for pre-season U16/18 teams. The MYC also recognizes that players may want to play for more than one team. As such, players who are legally rostered can play for their hometown team as well as another team or an independent team. If the two teams end up in the same division and could potentially play against each other, the player must choose one team at the beginning of the season and remain on that roster for all games. This provision is granted on a case-by-case basis, with prior league approval.
