Thank you to all for considering the U13A KMHA Cobras this season. I am looking forward to a competitive tryout!
Prep skates are available only to those players registered last season with KMHA. Those dates are:
April 28 8:00-8:50 Chatham Memorial Arena
April 30 7:00-7:50 Dresden Arena
This tryout will consist of up to 4 tryouts:
May 4 7:45-8:45 Thames Arena
May 6 7:25-8:30 Dresden Arena
May 7 8:40-9:50 Essex arena (exhibition game)
May 8 8:40-9:50 Chatham Memorial Arena (exhibition game)
All times are subject to change and the calendar on the KMHA website holds precedence over this article on tryout times.
Players are asked to show 1 hour prior to the first tryout for completion of an information sheet and to receive their jersey. I ask that players wear the jersey provided so that they are correctly identified by evaluators.
Players will be judged not only on their hockey skills - but also their ability to listen with a focus on self improvement, as well as interact with others in a positive and respectful manner. All kids are being assessed on an ongoing basis and not necessarily just when they are on the ice.
Neck guards and mouth guards are mandatory. Players are responsible for their own water.
Players are guaranteed 2 tryouts. Players can be signed at any point after the start of the first tryout. Those players continuing in the process will be updated on this web page. Players offered a card on the team will be offered a link to sign. It can be revoked by the coaching staff at any point, and an amount of time to complete the signing will be identified when offered. Once a player signs with KMHA, they are not permitted to continue tryouts with any other organization.
In advance, I’d like to thank everyone for their patience, their positivity and their best effort over the course of the tryout. These can be stressful times with tough decisions for all. I wish everyone the best!!
