Althea Loschinskey

My name is Althea Loschinskey. I have been a part of the Prince William Hockey Club for 2 seasons now and I want to stand up for the club as Vice President because I want to see the club succeed and grow. I am 40 years old, I am married, I have 2 sons currently playing hockey in our club, I am a military veteran and work now as a Project Officer for the Marine Corps. I plan to leverage years of experience in athletic competition, coaching, military leadership, civil service and program management to work for the club and its interests. I enjoyed watching my sons participate in youth hockey over the last 4 years, I have many more years experience as an athlete and coach, and I understand the organizational endeavor and pursuit of competition in athletics; moreover, I am not coaching in the club, so my objectivity and availability will be paramount factors in my contributions to the club.

Despite the challenges we are facing this year, the club will grow and learn new ways to achieve its mission to provide a quality hockey experience for its members. As a parent, and a former coach and athlete, I am passionate about the quality of the sporting experience for our youngsters. I believe hockey provides incredible opportunities to experience competition, develop physical skills and mental toughness, enjoy camaraderie, teamwork, and respect ... all attribute to skills necessary to succeed in life. Our young players are learning how improve their skills, how to realize success and how to deal with disappointment, and I believe that learning to practice good sportsmanship despite wins and losses will help our youngsters become confident, responsible and successful adults.

As Vice President it will be my goal to collaborate with fellow board members to execute the club's business in a mature and logical manner, to bridge strong relationships across our club's programs, and to promote good sportsmanship throughout the club. In my time as a coach and as an active duty military officer, I led hundreds of young men and women and have seen them make mistakes. I am prepared to handle the duties of the position of Vice President, and I am eager to work to ensure that our club continues to be recognized as an organization that promotes good sportsmanship and respectful conduct from the youngest player to our most senior coach (and our proudest spectators). Despite the temporary setback with our home rink, the CBHL and the entire east coast should know that we are a sporting club in earnest and that we enjoy hockey.
