AMHA Pee Wee A (2016) Team Tryouts

April 29th, 2016

 

Dear Parents and Players, We would like to welcome everyone to the Pee Wee A, 2016 AMHA team tryouts and thank you for taking the time to attend. 

 

The players will be assigned a tryout jersey colour and number. Jersey must be handed in to the coach following completion of each tryout.

 

Kindly note that full protective gear is mandatory, including neck and mouth guards players without, or missing such equipment, will not be allowed on the ice.

 

The tryouts will be an anxious time for all of us while the players are evaluated.  It will be an extremely difficult task choosing 17 players (15 players, 2 goalies) for each team from a large group of hardworking athletes.  Player selection will be based on their individual abilities such as:

 

· Skating

· Puck handling

· Shooting

· Team play

· Hockey sense

· Attentiveness

· Attitude

· Desire

· Coachability

 

 

To ensure the selection process is fair, there will be a team of evaluators assisting me in assessing the players. Please do not approach evaluators.

 

TRYOUTS - DATES TIME LOCATION

April 29th,6:15pm ACC 2

April 30th, 3:30pm ACC 1 ( Exhibition Game)

Releases after each of the tryouts will be made by the head coach via the AMHA Website. The posting will be made via your player number by 12am after the first Tryout. After the second Tryout the results will be posted on the AMHA Website after 4pm on May 1st . After the Final Tryout the results will be posted on May 4th  after 4pm. The head coach will be available for additional feedback for released players, if requested, no sooner than 48 hours after the final tryout date.

 

It is important to know that playing rep hockey requires a big commitment both time-wise and financially.  This year we will be playing approximately 30 league games plus additional play-off, tournament and exhibition games.  The regular ice times have not yet been determined.  Each week there will be, on average, two practices and one home and one away game.   There will also be 2-4 tournaments (one/two out of town). Budget outlines have not been completed but we expect it will cost approximately ($1,500-$2,000) per player for the season.  Parents may be called upon to obtain sponsorship, organize fundraising activities to help offset these costs and to support the team administratively.  There will also be a mandatory team dress code for games.

 

Should you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us away from the arena.

It should be clearly understood that if your child should make this team, it will be the coachs final decision as to the positions they will be playing.

Looking forward to the upcoming season.

 

The AMHA is pleased to introduce Lion Share Marketing as our exclusive Tigerware provider.  Lion Share is located at :
16610 Bayview Avenue, Unit 8 in Newmarket. Once the team is selected you will have your Team Tigerware/Jersey Fitting on June 2nd at 7:15pm.
