If we are missing anything or if you have any questions don't be scared to speek up this is a team effort to make it all work out and be a success.

Tryout Information
As conditioning camps are under way and tryouts will soon be upon us to select the Midget AA team for 2018/2019 season in North River. Here is the schedule and the way we will be handeling tryouts.
It will be $20 for the first two Tryouts
Wednsday Oct 10th 7:30-8:30 A- MacG at APM
Wednsday Oct 10th 8:40-9:40 MacG -Z At APM
Saturday Oct 13th 6:30-7:30 Inter squad game at APM
We will choose 20 skaters and 3 goalies to move on to the next two ice times.
A list will be posted on the web site by 12:00 Saturday Night
It will be $20 for the second two Tryouts
Monday Oct 15th 8:40-9:40 Practice at APM
Wednsday Oct 17th 7:30-9:00 exibition game vs Central Attack at APM
Team will be posted on the web site by Wednsday at 11:00pm.
So as you can see this process is going to be short and sweet or not so sweet. We have four ice times to pick the team and not only play on the ice will determine spots on the team but attitude and behavior in the dressing rooms, on the bench, at practice and the willingness to listen and be coached will come into play.
Here are a few things that parents and players to take into consideration as they tryout for this team.
- The cost to play on this team last year was $550.00 . This covers 4 tournaments, Team pictures, team socks and all other activities that the team takes part in.
- We will be Taking 2 Goalies, 9 forwards and 6 defence on the team roster. We will sign 6-10 AP players as well.
- Practices are on Monday or Tuesday nights at 8:40 at the APM. (North River Minor Hockey Has not givenus a time for sure yet) All players are expected to attend as we only have one practice a week and want to make good use of it.
- Home game times are Thursday Nights at 7:30 at the APM. There are two 15 minute periods with a flood then another 15 minute period. We ussually have an Away game every week as well. We try to keep the schedule up to date as far ahead as possible trying not to make too many changes as we know the boys are into other stuff and some have part time jobs.
- We are normally go in 3 on Island tournaments, one off Island tournament and the Provincials. This means one tournament a month and these will be determined before the parents meeting and layed out at that time.
- There will be a set of rules layed out at the Parents and players meeting after the team has been picked and of coarse all will be expected to fallow them.
- When selecting players for this team we as coaches can select players that tryout for defence to play forward or the other way around if we think it will benifit our team at the end of the day.
- On a final note I hope everyone understands that picking this team is no easy task.We at North River Minor Hockey have been blessed with great Coachs at both the A and AA levals of hockey as these kids came through the system and we have a very good group of players to pick from. It does not make it any eisier that i know many of the players and parents who are trying out for spots on the team. Hopefully you all respect the process and we all can live with the results and have a great hockey season.
Good Luck to all in tryouts and hopefully everyone has a great hockey season.If you have any questions for me my contact info is on the team web site under the staff tab.
Thanks

New Season
Welcome back to another Hockey season. As you can all see by the web site we have or team sponsor back for another season. I want to take the oppertunity to thank Danny and Susan West at West Masonry for thier continued suport of out Midget AA team here in North River. I want to take this oppertunity to invite all Midget age players in North River Minor Hockey to come out to the conditioning camps this week. The schedule is posted on the coordinators page. Pre regestration was required for both conditioning camps and tryouts and would ask that all players attend the proper ice times to keep a good balance. There are two ice times for conditioning camps for all players wether you plan on playing A or AA. This gives everyone a chance to get on the ice get ready for another hockey season and have some fun with potential team mates. we will be working on some skating, passing, shooting and some conditioning drills that are good for all skill levals. Hope to see you at the rink.
