Travel team tryouts require a $50 tryout fee. This covers your player for all tryout dates listed for their birth year. Players who attend House Evaluations must submit a $100 deposit. This deposit will be applied to your 2025-2026 season dues. There is no fee for players attending 8U evaluations. 

We partner with the New Edge School of Goaltending to provide two goalie-specific clinics per month throughout the season, offering players the opportunity to enhance their skills at no additional cost. Beginning in 2025, goaltender instructor(s) will also attend regularly scheduled Skills Sessions—weekly for AAA players and every other week for AA players.

Our organization is dedicated to delivering exceptional instruction and development for goaltenders. Guided by the expertise of New Edge School of Goaltending, our program follows a structured progression plan. The drills and coaching techniques are designed to develop competitive, mobile, athletic, and fundamentally sound goaltenders capable of excelling at higher levels of hockey.

With access to elite instruction and a tailored training program, our comprehensive goalie program is focused on honing your abilities and equipping you with the tools necessary to take your game to the next level.

Typically, the hockey season begins in August and ends in late March or early April, depending on your player's age and skill level.
