How Your FOMH Membership Helps the Team
From books to sticks to bananas...
Just where does your FOMH membership money
go? Your contribution will go directly and exclusively to the Men's
Ice Hockey Program, to help fund summer classes, equipment, team
travel, and recruiting expenses. In fact, did you know thatÉ
Maine Hockey's 2007-2008 Team GPA of 3.11
was the best in Hockey East? Over 75% of our
student-athletes take at least one summer class
each year. FOMH helps pay for their tuition.
the Black Bears go through over 500 hockey
sticks each season? In fact, 23 sticks broke in
just one triple overtime playoff game! FOMH
helps purchase new ones for our players.
good nutrition is important to our team? Our
players consume over 1,800 bananas and 3,000
nutritional shakes each season. A typical
pre-game meal on the road costs our hockey
program over $500! FOMH helps pick up
the tab for the team.
our coaches must travel far and wide to recruit
elite student-athletes for our team? Our 2009-
2010 team will have players from 12 different
states and Canadian provinces. We even have
2 more freshmen from Sweden this year!
FOMH helps our coaching staff cover the
rising costs of recruiting.
