FRESHMEN TRY-OUTS Due to Freshmen Orientation, Freshmen will only be required to attend Tue. August 26th @ Center Ice 8:50 pm - 10:20 pm with Thursday August 28th @ Center Ice 8:10 pm - 9:40 pm as a call back date that will be determined by the coaches. Dear Hockey Parent: Hope everyone is having a great summer. Planning and preparation for the 2008/9 York Hockey Club Season is well underway. This season the club will be participating in the Metro West League. This move will raise the level of York Hockey bringing the club some new and exciting challenges. Practices will be held at Center Ice of Dupage (Tuesdays 8:50 to 10:20 PM and Thursdays 9:0 to 10:30 PM) and Addison Ice Arena (Mondays 9:05 – 10:35 PM and Wednesdays 8:40 to 10:10 PM). The Varsity and Junior Varsity teams will evenly split the ice time during the Season. The interest in York Hockey continued to grow! Registration for the 2008/9 season once again is strong, exceeding the number of player slots for the two teams. Unfortunately, that means for this season there will be try-outs to fill the Varsity and Junior Varsity teams. The teams will be selected by the YHC Coaching Staff and posted to the York Hockey website by Saturday after try-outs. For those players who do not make the Club, all fees will be returned less a fifty-dollar try-out fee. Try-outs will be held at the following times at the Center Ice rink: All Players- Monday, August 25th at 6:10pm All- Players- Tuesday, August 26th at 8:50pm Invited Players- Thursday, August 28th at 9:00pm Please be sure your player is at the rink no less than 45 minutes prior to the ice time. No player will be permitted to try-out without a paid registration deposit, all registration forms completed and payment of USA Hockey Insurance! To get the Players ready for the Season, the Club will be hosting a one and a half hour “get the rust off your skates” Clinic. The YHC Coaches will supervise the ice slots. The sessions will be held:
