Bill Petersohn - Coaches Helping Kids Fund

Bill’s wish for all hockey donations was to create a fund to advance his vision of the game.  Bill had an unmistakable view of the game that grew out of his own playing style and developed into Bill’s coaching style.  Play for the love of the game.  Play every shift with a purpose.  And above all, play for the team.  Coach Bill would often tell the kids he was not there to put them into the pros; he was there to pass on the love of the game through coaching future generations of young players.  And along the way, the kids learned from Coach Bill not only about how to play this sport-of-all sports, but learned how to grow, to support others, and to persevere.  All funds donated to this GoFundMe will be managed by Wissahickon Skating Club, a 501(c)(3) corporation, to support players who, regardless of talent, grind it out for the team, shift after shift, game after game.  Wissahickon Skating Club will work together with Bill’s family defining the parameters of Bill’s fund.
