School Assembly Program
The Devils and FOX Sports Net are once again pleased to present
the School Assembly Program. The content of the program is based
on extensive previous involvement in area schools. The result
is a 45-minute to one-hour presentation which addresses many
of the most pressing concerns facing youngsters today. It is designed
to be effective whether it is delivered to an entire student
body or a segment of students deemed most appropriate by the school’s
principal.
The value of education and a healthy lifestyle, and the benefits
of desire, dedication, and discipline are among the basic inspirational
themes covered in each assembly. Primarily conducted by team
broadcasters
John Hennessy and Randy Velischek, and former Devils’ defenseman
Bruce Driver, and forward John MacLean and narrated by Mike Emrick,
each presentation is comprised of three main elements.
These include an introductory video containing assembly-oriented
messages from Devils’ players, a verbal reinforcement of
the tape’s messages from the Devils’ representative,
and a follow-up question and answer session.
Street Devils ™
The Devils and the National Hockey League have created a blueprint
for an exciting street hockey program for kids called Street DevilsTM.
This program serves local community centers and schools (Official
Program Centers) by providing an athletic and educational program
free-of-charge.

Street DevilsTM is available to children (between the ages of
six and 16) in northern and central New Jersey through selected
local park districts, public and private schools, youth clubs,
and other organized recreation facilities. More than 10,000 boys
and girls, representing 85 organizations, have participated since
the program’s inception. Street DevilsTM supplies each participating
organization with sticks, goal nets, protective goaltender equipment,
rubber pucks, and no-bounce balls. It is designed to be played
on indoor gymnasium floors, outdoor playground surfaces, or other
safe, paved contained areas. The Street DevilsTM program was established
to make hockey more accessible to kids and to provide local communities
with a youth sports program that promotes education, sportsmanship,
and fitness through participation in hockey.The Devils are committed
to continue building and maintaining a community program that
encourages active participation in youth sports.
