BRONZE TEAM MEETS GOALS IN FIRST SEASON
TBA
The Bronze Phantoms will open the 2008 Summer season this Sunday as the
team plays a double header beginning at 5:00pm.  The two-game-slate is
needed by the Bronze league as a result of a seven team division.  The
Phantoms will begin with a 5:00pm contest against the Puck-Ups, followed by
a 7:00pm contest against DC Byers.  If players are not going to be able to
show for any of the July 22nd games, please contact Woot at 231-638-1396
ASAP.  Stay tuned to this website for more information.
The Jr. Phantoms met all the team's expectations in the team's first season at
Lazerskate.  Despite finishing the 14 game season with an overall record of
7-5-2 and not qualifying for the championship round series, the Phantoms were
able to post an above .500 record during the campaign. For many on the team,
this was their first season of hockey at Lazerskate.  With many shifting
northward from their previous home-rink of Rivertown Sports in Grandville, this
season was a learning experience that over half of the team had to overcome.
The team was also comprised of many players who had never played together
with one another before.  With former Phantom, Viper and Team America
players grouped into this Jr. Phantom team, there was a lot of new faces and
new hurdles this team had to overcome.  However, in talking with many on the
team, this season will be classed as a 'success.' "It's been my goal to bring
several of my friends into the Bronze league at Lazerskate for two years," said
Phantom goaltender Kevin Wootton.  "This season we were able to do that and
judging by my reaction, this should be a team that will continue to grow and
thrive in the Bronze league," Wootton said.  The Jr. Phantoms will be returning
to the Bronze league during the upcoming season.  However, the word 'Jr.' will
be removed from the team name.  "Everyone wants to win a championship
when it comes to hockey, however having fun playing a sport in which we all
enjoy is of greater value," said Wootton.
It is with great excitement that the West Michigan
Phantom Silver Team is able to announce that Nauty's
has agreed to help sponsor the team for the upcoming
season.  Nauty's is the teams regular hangout in
Muskegon and has been the official bar of Phantom
Hockey for nearly two years. "A lot of great memories
and fun nights have taken place at Nauty's and this
recent announcement is sure to add to the great
relationship and dedication many Phantom players

LEAGUE FEES NOW LOWERED: THANK YOU NAUTY'S!
Well, anytime we can lower league fees everyone seems to become happier.  
Thanks to the recent Sponsorship from Nauty's, team league fees for the
Silver team will drop to $85.00.  Of course, the $85.00 is only good if you pay
prior to the opening game.  Payments made after the opening game will
continue to see league fees at $135.  All money must be turned into the
Lazerskate office no later than the fourth game.  The Summer 2008 season
will begin Sunday, July 20th.  With the Phantom roster only at 9 skaters and a
goaltender, the $35 discount will not be waived for players paying after the
opening game.  Be sure to thank Missy and Nauty's for sponsoring West
Michigan Phantom Hockey.,

have towards Muskegon's local bar.  While the exact terms of the agreement will
not be disclosed, the team will announce that league fees for the Summer 2008
season will be lowered to $85.  All other terms of the agreement will be
discussed between team members.  The Phantoms will install and proudly
display the Nauty's logo on the back of the Phantom jersey below the number,
this is expected to be completed prior to Sunday's season opener.  Also, the
team will continue to display the Nauty's name on the team website.  The
Phantoms would like to say a very special thanks to Missy for helping secure
the deal and would like to say thank-you to Colleen for sponsoring the team.  I
suppose we should also say thanks to the Nauty's Staff for putting up with us
several times a week.  
I guess this means the
season hasn't started
yet.  I didn't expect a
Phantom team to have
zero recorded minutes.

League Fees Due July 22nd:
Reminder to all Bronze players that their $100 league fees are due this
Sunday before leaving the rink.  Money can be cash or charge.  Cedar
Rock raises the price $100 for a team not being paid in full following
opening night and the Phantoms are hoping to continue our tradition of
payment in full by first game.

Rock has pushed back the start date to July 27th.  Four team will made up the
