I just want to share with everyone how pleased I was with the effort again at today's tryout (tryout #2). Every decision that is made today and from here on is very difficult and I do not take them lightly.
As always, be sure to check the updated tryout player list this evening. Tomorrow's final tryout will be an exhibition game against Newmarket.
Thank you for the great effort so far!
Ken

Welcome to the 2017 Minor Bantam MD tryouts. As most of you are aware by now, the 'MD'

be 'contact' as it relates to making hockey plays and good body position.
However, making big 'hits' and stepping into other players will not be
permitted. We are excited to see how this initiative translates to our game as
the players continue to get faster and more skilled at this age, but can play
the game without the fear of being lined up by an opposing player for a body check.
