Fall season ends for the Warhawks

The Warhawks qualified for the NVSHL playoffs, but with a limited bench were not able to overcome Broad Run, losing in the first round 8-1. Madison got off to a good start with a goal by Peter Doroscheff on the rush, but was unable to sustain the pressure. This brings a close to a season like no other. Thank you to the parents, players, and team management for taking the precautions necessary for the Warhawks to complete the fall 2020-21 season safely. Spring registration is underway, and we will begin our combined Varsity/JV season in a few weeks.

Playoff bound!!

As the 2020-2021 season comes to a close, the Varsity Warhawks team has finished in 11th place in the NVSHL. Playoffs begin Friday, February 19, 9:00pm at Ashburn Ice House vs. Broad Run. If the Warhawks win the first round game, subsequent playoff games will be broadcast online with announcers. We'll publish the link at that time. Go Warhawks!!

Senior Night 2021

On Friday, January 29, the Madison Warhawks were proud to honor our graduating seniors Preston Cain and Justin Machovina prior to our final home game of the season vs. Yorktown. It was a much colder ceremony than in a typical year, taking place outdoors on a cold and windy evening thanks to COVID protocols. But, we were still able to show our warm appreciation for their dedication to the Warhawks, their love of the game of hockey, and for the young men they have become.

The game was close through the second period, until Yorktown scored 3 late goals to take the game 6-2. Madison goals by Drew Hall and Max Marr, with an assist by Rami Shawwa. The Warhawks wrap up their regular season this Friday against McLean.

Congratulations to Preston and Justin, and best wishes for your careers on and off the ice.

PVAHA Issues Updated COVID-19 Guidance

Click here for a letter from the PVAHA President, Linda Jondo, to touch base on the current state of the Pandemic, provide several recommendations on behalf of the Affiliate that teams/leagues should consider following, and offer the COVID-19 Playbook which outlines the steps teams need to follow to ensure proper notification is being followed when someone (Parent, Coach, Player, Team Official) has tested positive or has come in close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID must follow.

The Affiliate strongly recommends the following:

• There should be no use of locker rooms in rinks, even if permitted by the rink.

• Please limit the number of parents allowed in a building to one per family and no siblings. Some rinks now have implemented a ZERO spectator policy.

• Continue to wear face masks and wash your hands.

• Do not gather in large groups, either in the lobby or outside in the parking lot.

• Stop huddles for goal celebrations

• Stay physically distanced on benches.

• Do not…

…gather for chalk talks or time-out talks.

…share equipment, i.e., bring your own personally marked water bottles.

…use the penalty boxes.

…allow tailgating or gatherings of parents/siblings in parking lots.

If anyone (Player, Coach, Parent, Sibling) tests positive, or has come in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, we ask that you follow PVAHA and CDC Policy and notify the team manager as soon as possible, by sending an email to Jen Cooper at warhawkicehockey@gmail.com and jencooper@rohintongroup.com .

Anyone who has tested positive should plan to isolate for up to 14 days, and anyone who has come in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID will need to quarantine for 14 days. This means they should refrain from all team activities as well as any other activities (Skills Lessons, HS Hockey, other sports, etc.) until the 14-day quarantine is complete. 

As a reminder, it’s important that we all do everything we can to stop the spread of this virus so that we can keep our families safe and allow our kids to continue to play hockey!!
