So, I wanted to check out the Avon Old Farms hockey schedule the other day. You know how it is, you hear good things about a team, or maybe you’ve got a nephew or a friend’s kid playing, and you want to see when they’re hitting the ice. Seemed simple enough, right?
First thing I did, naturally, was head over to what I figured was their main school website. I started clicking around. Athletics, that’s usually the spot. Found the hockey page, sure, but finding the actual, current season schedule? That took a bit more poking around than I expected. Sometimes these sites, they’re not always laid out the way you’d think.
I spent a good few minutes there. Saw some news, rosters, stuff like that. But the straightforward list of games, dates, and opponents wasn’t jumping out at me. You know, sometimes it’s buried under a sub-menu, or it’s a link that’s not super obvious.
After a bit of that, I figured, “Alright, let’s try the old search engine trick.” Fired up Google, typed in “Avon Old Farms hockey schedule.” You get a whole bunch of results, as always. Some are news articles mentioning a game, some are those general high school sports sites that try to cover everything. You gotta be careful with those, sometimes the info isn’t the most up-to-date.
I sifted through a few of those. One or two looked promising, but then they’d have an old schedule, or it was just a link back to the main school site I was already on. It’s a bit of a runaround sometimes.
Eventually, persistence paid off. I either clicked a more specific link from my search, or I finally found the right navigation path on their athletics portal. It’s often under something like “Team Pages” then selecting the sport, and then looking for “Schedule” or “Calendar.” It wasn’t a fancy, flashing button, but it was there. Usually, these things end up being a simple page, or sometimes a PDF document you can look at or print.
Got it bookmarked now, which is what I should’ve aimed for from the start, I guess. Saves you the trouble next time you’re looking. It’s just one of those things – you’d think it would be a one-click affair, but often you’ve got to do a little digital digging. But hey, once you find it, you’re all set to plan for those game days.
My main takeaway? If the main school site is a bit of a maze, try searching for their specific “athletics department” or “sports schedule” page. Sometimes that gets you there quicker. Or just be ready to click around a bit. Patience is key, like with most things online these days!
