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.

GIRLS D2, D3, D4: Due to a timing conflict with a development camp and tournament on the initial day of tryouts, we are offering another tryout option for all girls divisions in District 2, 3, and 4! This additional ice time will be from:

Sunday, 05/17, 11 AM - 12 PM @ Novi Ice Arena, 42400 Nick Lidstrom Dr, Novi, MI 48375

Players are more than welcome to attend both tryouts at no additional charge - please fill out the form indicating which tryout(s) your player will be attending so we know for check in using the link below: GIRLS TRYOUT INDICATOR LINK
