Tryout Dates and Locations:

This page will be updated as needed as tryout dates for teams are booked and released — all confirmed tryout information will be posted below:

NOTE: Some teams may have combined tryout times between similar age levels or neighboring districts. This DOES NOT mean there will not be a team, rather, it’s a way to even out the number of players on the ice during a tryout and provide athletes with the best, most competitive tryout experience possible! In some cases, girls may be asked to attend the boy’s tryout reflective of their age division.
