Although I run one of those other sports I tend to agree with the generalization. The difference is the number of people willing to volunteer and the sheer numbers of participants. Hockey and to a way lesser extent ringette (just numbers not willingess to help), have a far more dedicated parent base that are willing to help out. That makes running things far easier. Also, when you are talking the scope of minor hockey the sheer logistics means it has to be organized like a military operation.
