Elmira Youth hockey season in danger, parents share concerns about First Arena | WETM

 


ELMIRA, NY (WETM) — Local hockey parents expressed immediate concern for their children’s future in the sport.

Elmira Youth Hockey, a prominent group that provides a platform for hundreds of children to play in the region, is still unsure whether they will play at all during the First Arena tenant transition. Earlier this month, CAN-USA’s deal with First Arena expired on July 16, just weeks before the youth hockey season was due to begin practice on the ice.

First Arena owners, The Chemung County IDA, have yet to announce a new tenant after that deal ends. Now parents are left with questions and looking for quick answers.

On Tuesday evening, Elmira Youth Hockey held a special board meeting in West Elmira to discuss possible options for their children to play the game they love. Parents discussed their issues of giving kids their chances on the ice and leaving them out in the cold for the future. The IDA disclosed that they are leaving all options on the table regarding a new tenant.

Parents at Tuesday’s meeting suggested contacting The IDA and Chemung County Executive Chris Moss to work on a good solution.

After a three-year contract between The IDA and CAN-USA expired, the future is indeed uncertain. Robbie Nichols, the chairman of the Elmira Youth Hockey board, was also the previous tenant of First Arena and owner of the Elmira Enforcers. There has been no meeting with Nichols and CAN-USA about a possible new deal yet.

The IDA is holding a special meeting of its own at 9:30 a.m. Thursday morning, which could potentially allay the concerns of local hockey parents throughout the season. A live stream will be provided by Chemung County and can be found at Thursday’s meeting here: https://www.chemungcountyny.gov/live_meetings_and_video_archive/index.php

Although the IDA and CAN-USA are on different sides of the negotiations, parents and the hockey community hope common sense prevails to keep many hockey dreams alive. They hope for more. Something this area and its people deserve. 18 Sports takes you to the meeting on Tuesday evening.
