Stillwater Hockey Association is excited for another great season!
Ed Souter, SAHA Boys Director
Skaters will be issued two jerseys for tryouts which they will keep for the entire tryout. Feel free to wash them in between sessions if needed. We will communicate a turn in date via email which will take place after tryouts.
You are responsible to return the jerseys when requested. The jerseys will need to be washed upon turning them in. Any jersey not turned in will result in a $11 charge per jersey.
- Players will be issued a numbered jersey
- Players shall wear a helmet with NO IDENTIFYING TEAM MARKINGS or STICKERS (AAA, Teams Names, etc). THIS WILL BE ENFORCED!
- NO TEAM NAMES allowed on helmets, breezers or breezer covers.
- Socks must be standard issued SAHA socks (previous seasons) or black, red or white practice socks.
- Both socks must be the same color (Must wear matching socks).
- Wear all your standard hockey equipment including mouth guards.
- Check your hockey bag each day before tryouts.
The tryout/evaluation dates have been set for Bantams, Peewees and Squirts. Please read the charts below for location and dates. All dates, times and locations are subject to change, so please refer back to this page to confirm before tryouts start.
SAHA tryouts are closed to the public. No parents watching with the exception of approved coaches, evaluators/coordinators and board members. Squirt parents will be allowed to enter to assist with skates. Please exit swiftly upon completion as the session will not begin until everyone has cleared.
IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS IS THE TRYOUT PROCEDURE FOR PEEWEES AND BANTAMS. IN ORDER TO COMPETE FOR THE AA OR A LEVEL TEAMS YOU MUST REGISTER FOR THE AA TRYOUT. PLAYERS WHO WISH TO OPT OUT OF THE AA/A TRYOUT SHOULD REGISTER FOR THE B1 LEVEL TRYOUT OPTION. SAHA RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CUTS AT ANYTIME AND DIRECT ATHLETES TO THEIR NEXT STEP IN THE TRYOUT PROCESS. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO VISIT SAHA'S TRYOUT PAGES FREQUENTLY FOR IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS ON CUTS AND WHERE YOUR ATHLETE WILL GO IN THE TRYOUT PROCESS.
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION DESCRIBES THE TRYOUT PROCESS.
The number of players at each stage of the evaluation process will be determined by the players collective scores and feedback from the evaluators. Roster sizes will be determined by registration numbers at each level and the outcome of the evaluation process.
PLEASE CHECK THIS AGAIN BEFORE TRYOUTS! SORRY NO REQUEST FOR CHANGES WILL BE MADE!
Goalie Tryout Ice is noted in the schedule above with MEGA in attendance. From there, the goalies will then be assigned into regular tryout level pools and goalies are expected to attend these tryout dates after the GOALIE ONLY date. IT IS CRITICAL THAT GOALIES DO NOT MISS GOALIE TRYOUTS!
We wish all players the best during the tryout process! It is our goal to provide the best opportunity for players to show case their talents as a hockey player. This will ensure they are placed at the correct level to give them best best opportunity to have fun and for their long-term development.
When teams are announced, they are final!
