Atom Rep Tryout Process
The tryouts for Atom Rep this season will consist of two sessions where skills will be assessed, followed by two exhibition games against Wallaceburg. The number of players trying out will be reduced after each session.
Tryout #1 on Monday will focus mainly on skating skills with some shooting skills as well. Following the session I will post on the SKMHA website a list of players who will be moving on to the second session. I will reduce the number to approximately 20 skaters.
Tryout #2 on Wednesday will once again focus on skating and shooting skills. There will also be some competitive drills as well. I will likely reduce the number of players following this session too. Wednesday night I will post a list of players who will be playing Thursday's game in Wallaceburg. Not all players continuing to tryout will play in this game. Some will sit out and play Friday instead.
Tryout #3 on Thursday is an exhibition game at 6pm in Wallaceburg. After the game I will post the list of players who will play the game Friday in Blenheim. I will not reduce the number of players trying out following this game. I will likely inform a few players that they have made the team, and those players will not play Friday.
Tryout #4 on Friday is the final tryout. A home exhibition game against Wallaceburg. Following this game all players will be informed as to whether they have been selected to play Atom Rep this season.
The team's first practice is Saturday Sep. 15 at 2pm. There will be a team meeting after practice. The meeting needs to be attended by at least one parent of each player.
Good luck to everyone trying out. See you Monday night!
