Welcome
Welcome to the U10 BB Red's home page for the season, my name is Bill Pope and I am excited to be the head coach for this year. I'm looking forward to working with the 2016's this upcoming season and seeing where this year takes us. My staff and I are taking a development first approach, working on the skills and team aspects of hockey. 

Following is some information regarding tryouts:



Tryout ID's

Starting today emails with your unique tryout ID will be sent out. This 3 digit number will be used by the coach's to provide updates on cuts and final selections throughout the process. If you haven't received an ID by the start of the first session please make this known to one of the coach's and we shall make sure you receive one. 

Tryout Overview

Tryouts begin on May 3rd with the first session taking place that afternoon. Your group number will be posted using your tryout ID before the sessions begin that day. Please note all participants are only guaranteed one session within this tryout process.

The first three sessions will go as follows 

May 3rd, Will be skills and small area games for the entire session. 

May 4th Morning, More skills and small area games.

May 4th Afternoon, Will be intrasquad games. 

Signing Process

The signing process for this year will look a little different to years past. The coaching staff will be sending an email to players that we would like to offer a spot to. This email will include a link to go and register for the team. Once you have registered you will be officially apart of the team for this season. As things will be going fast we will be sending the emails as we feel ready to offer a spot and once we have signed the full team we will make a post on the website. 

We as a coaching staff are looking forward to getting started this year and seeing you all at tryouts this weekend.

Monies for this cause have been donated by various individuals and organizations over the years, however with increasing demands we have the need to provide further support for this program.
