Good Morning Sting!
Coach Chris here wanting to provide a few last-minute tryout updates heading into tomorrow:
1) Due to the number of players registered, we will split both the Saturday and Sunday tryouts into two 45-minute sessions. Those with last names starting with "A" to "L" will be asked to come to the first session, and those with last names starting with "M" to "Z" will be asked to come to the second half.
2) Players are asked to arrive
30 minutes prior to their scheduled ice time session to register and get their jersey/penny assignment.
We would ask all players to please bring their black game jersey from last year if they have one. If you do not have one, we will be providing tryout pennies as required.
3)
All goalies will attend the first session. Depending on the evaluation progress we may keep you for a brief period into the second time slot, but do
NOT expect to be on the ice for the full 90 minutes.
4) In relation to point #3 above, please be advised that this is an
evaluation skate not a practice, and as such I am not looking to maximize our ice time utilization.
I am looking to evaluate our players and goalies through a set group of drills, and once completed we will wrap up. If it takes us 35 minutes instead of 45 minutes to get through what we need to do then we will head off the ice early.
As previously stated, all players and goalies will be attending both the Saturday and Sunday sessions after which an initial round of releases will be made. I will post updates here as we move through the evaluation process.
If you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to reach out!
Thanks,
Coach Chris
