U12 Select Tryout Invite - Update
What a weekend to see so many players out there enjoying hockey again after these past House League assessments. It’s great to see that the U12 age group has such a high number of players returning year after year which coincides with the many great coaches and parents we have to keep them engaged, having fun, and coming back for more.


Just an update about invites to the Select tryouts for this coming weekend. The plan is that I will be sending out email invites tomorrow (update - invites have been sent, please also check your junk mail) to a limited number of players based on the assessments we just had (30 players and 4 goalies). This will be sent to the email address provided when registering.

I do want to note though, that it is not easy to decide who to invite and not, especially with the sheer numbers and all the very talented and skilled players for this age group. If you were not invited to continue on with the Select tryouts, I do want to wish you all a successful season ahead, continue to push hard, learn, and develop to be the best hockey player that you want to be, and keep it fun! 

See ya all at the rink!

Thanks - Coach Luke




 
Sponsors
Timbits
The Timbits Minor Sports Program is a community-oriented sponsorship program for children four to eight years old who participate in local house league sports teams. The program's philosophy is not based on winning or losing - but on learning a new sport, making new friends, and just taking time out to be a kid. Tim Hortons currently sponsors over 200,000 children who play on hockey, soccer, lacrosse, t-ball, baseball and ringette teams across Canada and in the United States. Each sponsored team is supplied with Timbits Minor Sports jerseys or T-shirts. Timbits hockey teams are often given the opportunity to play on-ice scrimmages during intermissions at Junior, American Hockey League (AHL) and National Hockey League (NHL) games and do so with our own KITCHENER JR. A RANGERS. Tim Horton's once again sponsor's our 40 entry level HL teams this year.
