If you have interests that might take you away from your participation or commitment to your hockey team, make the right choice be honest about how much you want to play on a competitive team.  Decisions you make will affect your team.  Championships are generally through Spring Break.  If you are taking a Spring Break vacation play recreation.

What is required to Tryout for a Competitive or Development Team?

  • FSJ members are the only players eligible for U11 Development and must be registered by July 31 midnight of current season.
  • There is a non-refundable tryout fee for all players.
  • Late tryout requests will not be accepted, please do not ask.

 

How are players picked for teams?

  • Evaluators who are not in conflict with players on ice will participate in player selection.
    • Players are numbered and names are not given to evaluators.
  • Last five picks are chosen by the Head coach.
  • Coaches are not named until numbers are down to the last five.
  • There is no process that is 100%.

 

And if you are part of the team?  U11 Development participate in the HADP League.

  • There will be team fees which are set by each team outside of Minor Hockey fees.
    • Each team will decide at their first team meeting the amount and what the fees will cover, meals hotels.
  • Minimum two practices a week, one of which could be 6:00 am or 4:00 pm.
  • Be prepared to travel, play hockey most weekends, and miss some school days.
    • If you have an older player who is part of a Rep team, they will be attending championships during spring break and your U11 child may be participating in a different location for a tournament.
      • Be prepared to split your family and attend with your U11 child.
    • As Competitive Player or Parent, your behavior on and off the ice reflects on you and FSJ Minor Hockey.
    • If you have a concern that your coach or team manager is not able to resolve, PLEASE contact your Rep Director.

 

Are there expectations for parents?

  • Parent Commitment is necessary. There are many jobs for Competitive teams, you will be expected to help.
  • It is up to parents to ensure your child arrives at all games and practices on time.
    • Punctuality is a sign of respect!!
  • It is mandatory that you participate in any allowable fundraising for the team.

 

Respect the Coaching Staff 

  • You will not agree with all coach decisions, practice plans and game plans.
    • This does not give you the right to interfere.
  • Coaching your children off the ice will cause confusion and stress for the player.  Let the coaching staff take care of the players on the ice during games and at practice. 
  • Be a positive influence for all players on the team.

 

Verbal abuse of officials, coaches, opposing players or your own team is not acceptable behavior. If you are frustrated, remove yourself from the Arena before you have an outburst which will embarrass yourself, your child, and your Minor Hockey Association.
