Pa Hockey – Pennsylvania Hockey History Restoration Project   

  The Pa Hockey Foundation is beginning a lifetime project in 2013 to rebuild the History of Hockey in the State of Pennsylvania and bringing this project to the Internet including Pictures, Videos, Periodicals and Stories of Pennsylvania Hockey from 1969 to the present. The Pennsylvania High School Hockey Championships have crowned 99 Pennsylvania State Champions at the Class AAA, Class AA and Class A levels since 1975 and began in Erie, Pennsylvania at the Glenwood Rink. Pa Hockey Hub will begin to compile the history of the  Pennsylvania High School Hockey Championships to the Pa Hockey Hub www.pahockey.net and Pa Hockey History Hub www.pahockey.org Websites in unprecedented fashion with the Championship Teams, the Stories including the journey of the development, the championships runs and the moment captured with Video Footage, Press Articles, Pictures and most importantly the stories before, during and after those championships.  

      The beginning of this project will begin additional projects including the first games in Eastern Pennsylvania in 1969 and Western Pennsylvania in 1971, the Leagues and their Championships, the Pacesetter Players, Coaches and Programs, All-Time Records and Milestones and begin many Reunions of Championship Teams, Players, Coaches and Families.        

     The project has begun with a Facebook Page called Champions Gate - Pennsylvania Hockey Champions  https://www.facebook.com/jeffreycmauro?ref=tn_tnmn#!/groups/190907268730/  and I have begun to compile pictures of the Pennsylvania High School Hockey Champions from 1975 thru the present. Out of the 99 Pennsylvania High School Hockey Champions, I have uploaded pictures from 2000 to the present and now I am attempting to bridge the gap from 1975 to 2000, with the Archives I have collected plus elicit help from anyone who has pictures of these State Championship Teams.         

      Send me any pictures, articles and videos you may have collected to Pa Hockey Foundation PO Box 10598, Pittsburgh, Pa. 15235 or jeffmauro@aol.com. This is a great project with the outline below and I look forward to working with all of you to bring back the History of Pennsylvania Hockey for us all to enjoy !
