TRYOUT #4
Great job at the Black and White game last night! Looking forward to our exhibition game TONIGHT 7:00 - 8:30 PM at Pat Stapleton.
I knew these tryouts were going to be competitive as this age group is a very deep and a very talented group of young men. It's certainly lived up to that expectation and I appreciate the hard work from all the boys up to this point.
The most stressful part of applying for any coaching job is the evaluation period but at the end of the day it's all part of the role. This is never an easy process to go through and after some difficult conversations here is the list of players that will be moving on to our final skate tonight against the U14BB team.

Please arrive 60 minutes before the game so we can get a warmup in and address the boys before the game. Coach Sparks and myself will be on the bench tonight and are looking forward to another hard fought battle.
Again, anyone not on the list your hockey journey does not end here. This is a very strong group of kids at the 2013 age group and I encourage the boys to reach out to other centres or keep an eye out for the select team tryouts during the course of the SHA season.
Go Sting Go!
Coach Shortt
