A Fan Works for Closed Captioning at Pru Center by Gary Noll Gary Noll, Deaf DFC member, Devils plans tickets account holder, asked, pushed and requested Prudential Center to post the public addressing announcer closed captioned CC on the scoreboard during New Jersey Devils games few years ago. I also asked James Semerad, Seton Hall's Associate Director for Ticket Operations if it is possible we post public addressing announcer closed captioned CC during Seton Hall basketball games. Seton Hall basketball and New Jersey Devils hockey both share Prudential Center. James agreed to support my request. I also asked the Devils Fan Club to support my request. They were very supportive. We all worked with Prudential Center. http://www.dailyrecord.com/story/sports/college/2015/02/26/gary noll advocates deaf rutgers seton hall Prudentialfans/24084095/Center
agreed. They offered two ways to deaf fans: public addressing announcer closed captioned CC posted on the scoreboard and ribbon boards and picking up hand held device from the Guest Service during Seton Hall basketball and New Jersey Devils hockey games. New Jersey Devils debuted CC on November 28, 2014 when they played Detroit Red Wings.

Brittanie Roldan, Prudential Center Director for Guest Service and her staff were very supportive. We worked together to make sure we got best public addressing announcer CC including play by play, referee, advertisement, entertainment and other announcements during Devils games. We found it very challenging. Hockey is a non stop sport unlike basketball or baseball. To keep up with CC during a hockey game is challenging. This past year, we improved play by play captioning and other announcements. We had best captioning during Brodeur ceremony days. DFC was also very supportive. I have been going to many New Jersey Devils games to make sure I provided my feedback, suggestions for improvement. I also asked for CC on TV discussion during New Jersey Devils and I got support from DFC and Prudential Center Deaf fans and myself can follow it very well. We now have awesome fan experience at games. Thanks to James, Brittanie and her staff and NJ Devils Fan Club for their support.
Congratulations to Ray Shero on completing his first season as General Manager of the New Jersey Devils. Congratulations as well to first year coach John Hynes. Though the team did not make the playoffs, the season was a lot of fun and there were some very good successes in hockey. We are always proud of the members of our Devils ’ organization, and although the NHL Devils didn’t compete for the Stanley Cup, there were still some outstanding achievements by Devils this post season. John Hynes coached the US team in the World Championships, we had players playing in it, and Mackenzie Blackwood was named the OHL Goaltender of the Year. It ’s not just homers in New Jersey that think we have some great people in the Devils organization and this proves it. Although we were all disappointed by the Devils’ missing the playoffs, we trust the extra time off is good for healing the players’ aches and pains as well as motivating them for next season. Missing the postseason one year can sometimes be a needed push towards an extra hard working team on the way to another deep Stanley Cup playoff appearance (and hopefully Cup win). For many of you, the hockey season is now over. You are looking forward to summer and the start of the 2016 2017 season and the Quest for The Cup to renew. And who knows? If recent history holds true, the Devils might be back in the finals next season!

Even though the 2015 2016 season is over for our Devils, you can still find many hockey activities to tide you over until late September. The Devils Fan Club strives to support youth hockey in our state and seeing the development of the young players year after year in the various tournaments is a source of great pride for us. The rough and demanding game of hockey still produces some of the most down to earth and pleasant athletes you could hope to meet. Well dressed and well mannered, the young players make it a pleasure for us at the DFC to work with. Helping them continue to develop their skills by sponsoring and working at various youth hockey functions is rewarding and exciting. We hope you can attend or participate in some of the quality hometown hockey events our fan club loves to promote and help grow. You never know who will come up through the ranks in Jersey and end up in the NHL don’t you want to be able to say you “knew them back when”…?

Since 1983, The Garden State Games Ice Hockey Competition has provided opportunities for young players in New Jersey to enjoy themselves in a sports festival atmosphere while displaying their hockey skills. We are one of about 30 sports included under The Garden State Games umbrella. The original Games format for ice hockey included only the scholastic level. In 1996, youth players (13 & under and 11 & under) were included. In 1997, Sled Hockey joined the games. The support provided by The Devils Fan Club is one of the reasons we have been able to expand. Since 1992, The Devils Fan Club has made donations through its Charities Committee to aid game funding. More importantly, fan club members have donated their time and energies to help staff this competition. They have served in various capacities: fund raising activities, try out managers, locker room managers and off ice officials (perhaps the most fun of all!). The Devils Fan Club has also donated The Most Valuable Player awards to the outstanding performers in each year's games. The DFC would like members to help staff The Garden State Games this year. Please mark your calendar and volunteer your time to this exciting event. There are many different volunteer positions available so please contact the DFC hotline 201 768 9680, mailbox # 4 for more details. Your phone call will be returned. We look forward to having our DFC members be part of this special tournament! Please Volunteer!
