Hockey Can Better A Life

The Ashar Hockey Team continues its support of Israel by announcing today its assistance as a participating sponsor in the Metro Area Yeshiva's "Skate for Sderot" 3 on 3 Roller Hockey Tournament benefiting Israels southern town of Sderot.

The people of Sderot living the daily fear of the thousands of Qaussam rockets, that have killed and injured so many people in recent years.

Ashar Hockey loves everything hockey and everything Israel. Thats why when we heard of 3 yeshiva teens orchestrating a metro area high school hockey tournament benefiting Israel, we took notice.

Joe Teplow (SAR) , Netanel Shafier (TABC) and, Zev Hait (SAR), all strangers to the Ashar Hockey team are the brainchilds behind this unique Metro Area Yeshiva charity event.

The Ashar Hockey team commends the "better well done then well said" attitude of these young men and we our proud to lend our support to their worthy charity effort.

Ashar Hockey will donate for raffle an official framed Israel National Ice Hockey Team jersey autographed by the entire Israeli National Ice Hockey Team including its Stanley Cup Champion coaches Jean Perron (Montreal Canadians) and Craig Button (Dallas Stars), valued at $1,500.00

In addition the Ashar Hockey team will pledge to help raise $500 in support, of the people of the town of Sderot.

We hope other yeshiva's in our area will join Ashar with financial support. This not only for the people of Sderot but for the courage of these three young men who took the big risk in asking those outside the comfort of their school for support. We feel their efforts to help the people of Sderot is worth our attention.

After all, this is not about school or town pride. It's about coming together for all we really stand for.
