Chilliwack realtors, HomeLife step up to ensure female hockey teams receive equal on-ice sessions

CHILLIWACK — Chilliwack Minor Hockey Association says it is pleased to announce a significant partnership with HomeLife Advantage Realty towards a goal of ensuring that female hockey teams receive the same amount of on-ice sessions as co-ed teams.

In a social media post this past week, the association wrote, “We are elated to announce a significant partnership with HomeLife Advantage Realty Ltd. for the upcoming season. HomeLife Advantage Realty has generously stepped forward to sponsor the Female Development Ice, ensuring that our female hockey teams receive the same amount of on-ice sessions as co-ed teams.”

Carley and Chayse Diack, two loyal members of the HomeLife Advantage Realty team, recognized an area within the association where more support was needed.

“Chayse, now in his second season of regular coaching with Chilliwack female hockey and previously with Langley minor hockey, brings a wealth of experience. Carley, with her deep ties to the community, passionately advocated for this cause within their agency,” Chilliwack Minor Hockey Association wrote on Facebook. “Their efforts, combined with the unwavering commitment of HomeLife Advantage Realty’s owners and management team, will provide our female athletes with the additional ice sessions, enabling us to bring in development coaches and help them reach their maximum potential.”
