As the years went by the Demons became known as the Jew\u2019ish\u2019 team, with ZY, Noah and Sara coming down from Canadian Jewish day schools, it only made sense considering both demons and Jews have horns. With Coach defaulting to Fuzz last season the Demon\u2019s instituted a new scouting and development program, which they had been testing out since Jenn joined the team in 2012.\u00a0\u00a0 The Yeshiva league, which has just been unveiled to the world by the <a href=\"http:\/\/mobile.nytimes.com\/2017\/01\/02\/nyregion\/yeshiva-floor-hockey-new-york.html?_r=1&amp;referer=http%3A%2F%2Fm.facebook.com\">New York Times,<\/a> has been the Demon\u2019s secret weapon in filling their roster on those hot Summer days.

It is here that we are training the goalies and referees for the future, sorry Newman.

Jew\u2019s love figuring out the numerical value of different words \u2013 or what a number could translate into. We have 18 players with Yeshiva League experience who have (or will) be playing for us. 18 is represented by the Hebrew lettes Chet and Yud \u2013 which spell Chai or life. It just so happens this is the root for the word Lechiam \u2013 so in the true spirit of BTSH\u2026 Grab your team, your pals, your family and DRINK UP.
