Ask any Chillie who the
hardest working player on the ice is, and you’ll get the same answer: Anne
“Frosty” Baker. Covered in glitter
and ice shavings, Frosty gives 110% every shift, every game.
New to the sport, she visibly improves every game, whether skating out with the
Chill, playing goal for her in-house team, or playing roller hockey with the guys. Her teammates are constantly heard commenting on
her lack of fear, which has actually landed her in the emergency room several times in her
short career. But she always bounces back, and
with her cheerful laugh and personal catch-phrase (“gotta sparkle, gotta
shine”), she inspires her team by her example, game after game.

Katheryn is a Southern California girl who started playing hockey in her late 20's. She started with roller in 1990 and soon switched to ice (too hard to do both). She convinced her husband to give it a try as well and they both played in a local co-ed league. Katheryn also played with a traveling women's team called the California Mustangs. After the birth of her daughter in 1997, Katheryn switched to playing in women's leagues, first in Anaheim and then in El Segundo when it started up. Her first trip with the Chill was to Alaska in 2005. Katheryn likes to go to the far-away tournaments.

The Chill’s
“Backhand Queen,” “S.J.” or “Mom” is one of those players
who can always be counted on to be in the right spot for a shot or pass. She’s a great penalty killer, using her
awesome backhand to flip the puck out, over and away from oncoming forwards. As a registered nurse, she’s amazingly handy
to have on the bench or in the locker room, and she’s a calming voice of reason in
the midst of what can sometimes be chaotic tournament planning. Along with her grown son, she works to pass her
knowledge on to mite-level players (6-8 year-olds), and feels that the best way to give
back to a sport you love is to instill that love in children.

Since taking up the sport
in 1994, Coeli has become such an accomplished student of the game that she plays on both
women’s and co-ed teams, has coached youth hockey, and can out-strategize even the
over-confident brother of an NHL great (just ask anyone in the bar that night!) Currently at D, Coeli is also proficient at wing
and can support the team with skilled and solid play wherever she’s needed -
including lending her literary talent to promoting The Chill. Constantly pushing to improve, Coeli has endured
many injuries in pursuit of the perfect play, including a broken ankle, torn knee
ligament, and back spasms.

Perhaps the most colorful
member of the team, Shari Latta is a real-life California stereotype, except for the fact
that she is a hockey-playing fool. A pre-school director and lifeguard, Shari spends her
free time running, swimming, and racing kayaks. Her day is not complete if it does not
involve some form of physical exertion, and she can always be counted on to have a supply
of yogurt, fresh fruit, and whole-grain bagels at every tournament. Rising at dawn, even
after a long night of celebrating a victory, Shari accomplishes more in a single day than
most people do in a week. Perhaps this is why she’s a great center - she can skate
her heart out shift after shift without ever slowing down or giving in.

Lisa started playing
hockey about 3 years ago with the Lady Kings league at Toyota Sports Center. She
started out playing left wing and gradually learned to play defense by subbing in at the
position when one of the regulars was out. She moved to the position more
permanently when teammate and fellow Chillie, Coeli Jones, moved back east. Her
first tournament with the Chill was the trip to Syndey, Nova Scotia in March of 2006 where
a great time was had by all!

Sherry is an all-round
athlete who surfs and runs on the weekends. She
also spends her free time hiking, weight training, spinning, and taking cardio-kickboxing
classes, so her family finds nothing unusual about her love of hockey. A real grinder on the ice, Sherry was once
described by her coach as “having flames coming out behind her.” The past team treasurer, she is a great organizer
and handles many additional chores on The Chill, including T-shirt designs, newsletter
printing, and candy sales. She is admired by
her teammates for her upfront personality and personal motivation.

One of the
“Scandinavian D,” Amy cites the steady, smart, and skillful play of Finn Jari
Kurri as her hockey inspiration. Although she
wishes she’d discovered hockey earlier, she has made the most of her time on the ice. As a reliable stay-at-home defenseperson, she has
awesome poke-checking skills, and can always be counted upon to be in the right spot when
she’s needed. She cherishes the photo
taken at the end of her first tournament, right after The Chill came from behind to steal
the championship in overtime from an “unbeatable” team: “I’ve never seen a collection of bigger
smiles,” she says; “including my own.”

didn't play a huge role in Kathryn's youth - and no one in her family ever played hockey. But, inspired by the LA Kings ("my home
boyz"), Kat started learning to skate and play about eight years ago and she hasn't
looked back. Since improving her skills is a top priority, Kat currently plays on the
Chill and two other women's teams so she can log plenty of ice time. Despite citing getting her body to do what needs to
be done as the hardest part of playing hockey, Kat has proved she can adjust to playing
defense when needed as well tearing it up at center and wing. And she can do it all on the roller rink too!

Kathy, a roller hockey
convert, was discovered by the Chill in a local women’s league. A hard-working forward with a nose for the net,
Kathy scores most of her goals from the crease, holding her ground against the other
team’s D and netminder. A mother of two,
Kathy saw a sign advertising women’s roller hockey, and with no experience and no
training launched her hockey career. Nicknamed
“the Bone” by her teammates (something to do with a dog, a magazine and a locker
room), Kathy consistently skates a minimum of three days a week, both on the ice and the
floor, and hopes to someday coach youth hockey.
