U13 B #1180, Rep (Waterloo Ravens Girls Minor Hockey Association )

All,

I want to thank everyone in the tryout process for their OUTSTANDING efforts. I wish that i could take everyone, believe me! I am so proud of all the players and how they handled themselves off ice and their efforts on the ice. You girls are the reason why I continue to have the passion to coach!

Please check the player list for the final selection for our 13B team.
Congratulations to the final list of players who have been successful making the U13B team!

Wishing players who didn't make this team, a fantastic winter season. All of you will be an asset to whatever team you play on.

All,

Final releases will be posted shortly.. I will post by 11pm.

I do apologize for the lateness of the posting as I am sure everyone is on pins and needles.
I asked the girls to make this the toughest releases that I have had as a head coach and they have come through.. This is the toughest group that I have had in the past 5 years to evaluate, especially the final releases.
Coaches and evaluators are just concluding lengthy discussions over the final releases, thus the delay.

Coach Rick

Players who are sitting for tomorrow's game are permitted to attend the game to watch and cheer on their fellow Ravens! GO RAVENS GO.

However, we are still in the tryout phase and I would ask those not playing to not be around the dressing room.

Coach Rick

Final selections will be made after tomorrows game against Kitchener.

We will still play Kitchener on Wednesday of this week.

On Thursday, we will have our first team practice at Albert McCormick Center East (AMCE) from 5pm to 6pm. We will hold a parent / coaches meeting in the Beaupre room (across from the west rink) from 6:30pm to 7:30pm.

Please be prepared to attend in person as we will be discussing volunteer positions as well as reviewing our team budget and voting on the "team" portion. We will have our President Sandra in attendance to answer any questions that may arise that require a response from a board member.

Girls, 

Great effort again today. As a result, there will be no releases tonight.

All of you collectively have given the evaluators and coaches lots to talk about.

I will post tomorrow's lineup Vs. Kitchener later this evening.

I realize that the team hasn't been fully formed yet but I want to give everyone as much visibility as possible to the upcoming tournament.

I am working with Event Connect to try and block rooms (in the event people want to stay overnight) but I am having issues with inventory. I should have a firm answer one way or another by Wednesday.

FYI - the tourney gods were not nice to us with early starts Friday and Saturday.
* Friday - 8am in Niagara
* Saturday - 8am in fort Erie

Complete schedule is loaded on our calendar.

Coach Rick

Players,

Thank you for your efforts today. Lots of good stuff for the coaches and evaluators to see and discuss.
As always, decisions to release are not taken lightly and should be tough ones, which with this group, they are.

There were some releases today. Please check the player list on our team page for those players invited to continue in the tryout process. 

Please click "read more" for the list of players in the line up for tomorrow's game at RIM. Please be at the rink at least 45 minutes before game time.
