Our midget select try-outs start tonight at Clearwater Blue 9-10 pm.
Please be there early to register and pay your try-out fee and receive your jersey. There will be two try-outs and a game evaluation for the Midget select this year. Please let me know if you can't make one of these three dates. The coaching staff and myself will have the team selected and posted on our website Wednesday September 26, 2018.
Good luck to all participants.
Dear SHA Parents,
One of the most difficult and stressful times during the hockey season is the tryout process…especially for parents! Research has shown that kids in many cases handle the pressure of tryouts better than parents do, making this time of the season a particularly nerve racking and potentially upsetting experience for all!
Objectives of Player Tryouts
- To provide a fair and impartial assessment of a player's total hockey skills during skating, small area games and scrimmage sessions
- To select players based on their level of skill, measured against their peer group, during on-ice evaluations while also factoring in feedback from previous coaches and certain hockey “intangibles” (e.g. work ethic, coachability, attitude, etc.)
- To form a select team that is competitive and provide the best opportunity for all players to further develop their skills and to HAVE FUN playing hockey
Should anyone have any questions please contact me by phone or email.
