U15 B2 tryout.
Welcome players and parents to the U15 B2 tryout. I wanted to mention a few brief items before the kids begin on Tuesday.
The process will be similar to the past when arriving at the arena with check-in and jersey pick up. Please allow ample time to do this and be ready to go when the tryout begins.
Equipment:
Mouth guards and neck guards are mandatory, no exceptions. A water bottle is recommended as well since it will be a 90 minute skate.
I would highly suggest that any players who like to wear their cages away from their chins get that adjusted to the correct position. This year is body contact and the helmets/cages need to be worn properly to avoid injuries. If that is not done prior to the tryout the player may be asked to leave the ice for safety reasons.
Expectations:
The plan is for 30 minutes of skills and drills followed by an hour or so of scrimmage. The evaluators and myself will be looking at more than just hockey skills out there. Attitude and effort are of the utmost importance if you wish to play on this team. Please be aware of how you represent yourself from the moment you walk into the arena. I will have a chat with the players before things begin to mention some other items about what is expected and what we’re looking for.
See you on Tuesday.
