Got a letter from the Air Force today...

[03trubluGT]

In today's mail we had a letter from "Air Force Athletics" addressed to my 16 yoa.

It was a letter from the Air Force Academy's head hockey coach saying he was at the Rocky Mountain District Camp that was held two weeks ago. The head coach and his recruiting coordinator had been at the camp and seen my son play. My son had been chosen from the top players in the Texas region (OK, TX, LA, etc) to go to this showcase.

The letter is an invitation to the 12th Annual Air Force Academy Midget Showcase.

The funny thing is that we played a tourney at Colorado Springs several years ago and one of the games was on the Air Force Academy's rink.

It looks like we will be going to Colorado Springs in June for them to take another look.

Solid barg.

Interesting. I've never heard of a service academy approaching anyone like that. Is he a Jr? It is actually illrgal for someone to actively try to recruit 9th or 10th graders.

As much hell as I give you, congratulations. Maybe you guys can turn this into something really cool.

I am deeply offended by the term "Midget". I will be sending them an appropriate letter demanding an apology....


In other news, that's awesome

Ya, I just looked that up.

Very cool, best of luck to your son. Military athletic teams get to travel all over the world so there is some cool possibilities there if everything goes well.
