Welcome to the U11 AA Hockey Season
Dear Players and Parents,
I’d like to welcome you to the start of what promises to be an exciting and rewarding hockey season. My name is Kyle Mellor, and I’m proud to be the head coach of the U11 AA team this year. I’m looking forward to getting to know each of the players and families, and I appreciate your commitment to the game and this team.
As we begin our journey together, we will be conducting a thorough and transparent tryout process to select the roster for the upcoming season. Player evaluations will be conducted fairly, based on skill, effort, coachability, and overall fit for the team. To ensure objectivity and a balanced perspective, I have assembled a team of experienced, independent evaluators who will assist in assessing each player’s performance throughout the tryouts.
Our goal is to build a competitive team that also emphasizes sportsmanship, growth, and a positive team culture. Every athlete deserves the opportunity to develop and contribute, and we are committed to fostering an environment that supports both individual and team success. Thank you for being part of this process. I’m excited to see the players compete and showcase their abilities, and I look forward to a fantastic season ahead.
For Saturday's tryout, I would ask that everyone bring their black and white game jerseys from last season, if you do not have one, we will provide you with one at the registration desk. Please arrive 45 minutes before the scheduled tryout time to ensure that your player has enough time to register and prepare themselves for the tryout.
Sincerely,
Kyle Mellor - Head Coach, U11 AA Sarnia Sting
