It was to be Ashar Hockey honoring the Israeli National Junior Hockey Team with a donation in support of their North American tour but it was the Israeli team that seemed to honor us.

At the Chelsea Piers Sky Rink New York City 10/12/06 exhibition event the Israeli team proved what the those in Europe had recently found out; This Israeli team can really play.

Before the game against the Chelsea Pier All-Stars, Ashar took center ice along with the Israeli Junior team to present the teams captains with Ashar Hockey Programs $1,000.00 donation.

After the victory, the Israeli Junior boys waited on the ice summoning the Ashar Hockey Team back out to share the spotlight with them before fans, print and the television media.

It was an amazing display of the mutual respect both country's hockey teams had for each other.

Ashar Hockey thanks the Israeli National Junior Hockey Team, its coaches and organizers for making this day truly memorable and emotional experience for our team.

We look forward to continuing our support of the Israeli Junior team with an even greater financial contribution in the future.

-- Thanks also goes to Mr. Tony Ettinger and the Terminal Hockey Charitable Foundation whose sponsorship of Ashar Hockey assisted in our ability to make this contribution to the Isaeli Junior team. --
