Hello All,
Tryout season has finally arrived! Please see below for further details as we get started.
My Goal
My goal this year is to build a team that is Smart, Structured and Relentless. I need a tight knit locker room with hungry players who will push themselves to be their best so they can challenge their teammates to do the same.
Players will have to earn their spot on this team, and that battle starts tonight.
B Team
The U18A program is historically supported by APs. Its my philosophy to take a team of 15 skaters & 2 goalies, then regularly use APs to fill in the gaps or support us in certain games. Having a strong B team gives me another option for APs and allows players to still play a high caliber of hockey.
More info will be posted regarding the B team shortly.
Tryout Structure
- Players are asked to wear a White or Black plain jersey
