Coach Spotlights are a way for the Meijer State Games of Michigan to show their appreciation for the coaches that have shaped the athletes competing in these events. This particular coach has been a part of MSGOM Hockey since the beginning. Due to this, he has been given the affectionate title ‘godfather’ of MSGOM Hockey. Please welcome onto the ice, Ron Baum!

Michigan winters with early sunsets make the days feel shorter, but the season longer. It is because of this and the short days that 20-40% of Michigan residents experience Seasonal Affective Disorder, also known as SAD. The Meijer State Games of Michigan wants everyone to participate in healthy living by focusing on mental health as we come out of these winter months. We are going to start by setting four achievable and measurable goals for the month.
Nobody said competitions had to be scary or extreme. They can be light-hearted, just for fun, or a checkmark on your bucket list.

Intensity competition levels range from sanctioned tournaments to beginner divisions.
To celebrate participation and sportsmanship, the Meijer Winter State Games of Michigan is going to review what the winter games are, where they were hosted, and the highlights.
