Posted on:
November 5, 2023

At Grand Strand Youth Hockey, we are all about teaching kids the game of hockey, having fun and watching our players as they learn and grow each week. With this in mind, each week throughout the season we will choose two players — one from each division — who stood out on the rink that week to honor as our GSYH Player of the Week.
