Our mission is to provide a fun and safe learning environment in which to
participate in the sport of hockey while emphasizing the spirit and competition
that is part of hockey. Our lunch-time league goes a long way toward meeting
this objective. You can choose to participate at different levels of play and
commitment. We also offer open skating pick-up games, and seasonal instruction
clinics ...
Please join us at the STiK for competition, skill development, camaraderie, and FUN that makes up the STK Hockey League!
See you at the STiK!

And so ends an era:
As most of you Sun employees know already, the wellness center activities are being outsourced to a company called Baysport. Sun has decided to discontinue the league programs as of December 23rd. I imagine that you will be able to organize pick up games. However, they will no longer allow external players to play in any of the pick-up games.
External includes anyone who does not directly work for Sun (Louisville) or who does not have a contract with Sun to use the center (EDS currently has a contract set up for their onsite employees). Unfortunately, spouses and dependants of employees are no longer eligible to use the center or play in pick up games. Also, as of right now Sun employees from across the road at the Broomfield campus are not allowed to use the center or play in the pickup games.
I know this is a shock and I am equally disappointed, but this was a business decision and that is that. Things may change once Baysport gets set up. I don't know what else to tell you.
It has been a fun ride and I value all of the friendships that have developed over the years. Lets have some fun through December 22nd.
Just to clarify before I get a bunch of e-mails:
These changes take place on December 23rd and do not affect the current league. We will operate business as usual until December 23rd.
