Tryouts

CYHA Tryout Info

Our number one priority is that players succeed, grow, and have fun. These are kids playing a game they love. Tryouts are one step in their long-term development and we want the environment to be as positive and stress-free as possible for everyone.

To make that happen, we have a few policies in place this year that are strictly enforced. Please review these with your player before arriving. Players who do not meet the equipment requirements may not be allowed on the ice.

Player Equipment Requirements

Phones: No cell phones allowed during tryouts. Phones must be fully put away before players enter the arena. Players found using a phone during tryouts will have it removed.
Helmets: Must be solid black. No stickers of any kind are permitted, including AAA, Tier 1, or house league stickers.
Gloves: Must be black and white. Bright or non-standard colors are not permitted.
Hockey Socks: Only black, white, or red socks are permitted.

Parent and Parking Lot Policy

No gathering in the parking lot: Parents are asked not to hang out or congregate in the parking lot during tryouts.
Zero alcohol: The rink enforces a strict no-alcohol policy. No drinks of any kind are permitted in the parking lot. Please plan drop-offs and pick-ups accordingly.

These boundaries exist to reduce pressure on the players and keep the focus entirely on them.
