prep skate - on ice volunteers

In order to run prep skates, we need on ice volunteers!  Please use the link below and add your name if you are able to help out.  NOTE: Incase I transcribed a time/location incorrectly - the information in TeamLinkt App is considered correct.

U9 Prep Skate - On Ice Help

Without 4-6 coaches for every time slot, we will have no choice but to cancel prep skates. 

On Ice coaches need to have:
-Skates, Helmet, Gloves, Stick

​​​​​​​

Evaluation Ice Times

All, please see below the U9 Evaluation Ice Times.  At this time, I am unable to tell you which group your player will be in, the PREP Skate Groups are NOT the Eval Groups.  I am sharing these times so you can plan in advance to be available on these dates, each player will skate once each date.

TeamLinkt Prep Skate Groups

Prep skate groups have been posted to TeamLinkt.  Prep Skates are NOT evaluations; the prep skates are offered as a means to give all U9 players the opportunity to be on the ice multiple times before we begin evaluations. 

Prep Skates are scheduled over the following weekends:

August 23/24
August 29 - Sept 1

Prep skates are not mandatory however all players are highly encouraged to participate.


Evaluation information

Evaluations for u9 will be held over the following weekends:

Sept 6/7
Sept 13/14

Our Evaluations are run by Sports Evaluations, and all communication on ice times for Evaluations will come directly from them (NOTE: It will NOT be in TeamLinkt like Prep Skates).  

Each player will skate 4 times over the course of 4 days, it is not uncommon for your players Group Number to change each day so please pay close attention to the Sports Evaluation Emails as you will get a new group and time after each skate.

U9 DIVISION INFORMATION

The U9 Division is comprised of players that are 7& 8 years old as of Dec 31, 2025.  

The U9 Division will host pre-skates prior to evaluations. (Dates to be announced) Once evaluations are completed, participants will be placed on a team based on their evaluations rankings. Pre-skates can start as early as the last weekend in August.  Efforts will be made to ensure teams are at a maximum of 18 players.

The U9 Division generally has one shared practice during the week and one game on the weekend.  A player development session is held once a month during a practice; therefore, practices will not be a set time each week so that teams can rotate through the player development session times booked (practices could be two weeks on a Monday and then two weeks on a Tuesday, two weeks on a Friday and two weeks on a Thursday for example).Full hockey player equipment is required for all sessions.  Please refer to the Parent Portal link for more information on equipment requirements.
